Seeing Hooker was never going to take the offensive, Lee pulled two more Divisions, those of South Carolinian RH Anderson and Georgian Lafayette McLaws from in front of Hooker and led them himself against Sedgwick in conjunction with Jubal Early. It was to be a day of frustration for Lee, as he could not prod McLaws forward and get the 3 division attack going. Sedgwick withdrew over Banks’ Ford when he lost Marye’s Heights to Early.(Early had a great battle.)
This was the cue for Hooker to call the campaign over and he withdrew over US Ford on the 5th. Casualties were high for the four day battle: 13000 for Lee and 17000 for Hooker. Lee’s proportion was too high, considering he only had 60000 to start with.
Lee and the South had bettered an army twice the size of their own and given Virginia breathing space. Lee’s next move, as it had been in 62, after a victory, was to move North.
Gettysburg awaited.
Jackson would never again be Lee’s “right arm”’ as he passed away on the 10th from complications from his amputation.
His last words were: let us cross over the river and rest in the shade of the trees.

“WILD BILL hasn’t been around here in ages”
That is not true. He posts here, just look at his profile. At least look at peoples profile before putting them in the “missing” bucket.

Heh, not like FBI files. There are conversation threads in the moderation forum about various things but like other boards here, conversations get buried in the backlog over time.
I’ll take a look as a refresher.
Oh so we’re keeping “files” on people now.
LOL wow… and Yoper’s sentence to exile is 2 years +, so that means it must have been a federal crime?
He hangs out at HBG, and contributes there.
Hmm,
WILD BILL hasn’t been around here in ages… No Timtheenchanter either.
And wasn’t there a guy named “on the bounce” ?

A MONTH is a long time to be gone, for a guy who used to post 4 or 5 times a week.
Also, do you have a list of names I can check against, so as not to list anyone that offends you? Leading to arbitrary editing.

If i could have a look on yours, i might go for the 2012 gold patron !
:-D :-D

I’ve probably forgotten more of the things that are in there, than most people have posted combine.
(Save the Jentlefan diaries)

Bait!
Chill baby, chill.

Hey now! I’m just trying to keep things above board here.
IMO Calvinhobbesliker and Mantelfan are welcome back. :) But Dare I type those letters on the screen.
-
Mantlefan needs more time. Whether that is time for him to cool off or for us to change is to been seen.
How is calvinhobbesliker?
I know about Hobbes, that guy and Bunnies are quite prolific A&A writers.

About 2 years ago I found a group of A&A players on a local website, I e-mailed the organizer and asked to join in and he said "“sure, glad to have you aboard”. He gave me his address and seemed like a real nice guy.
I couldn’t wait to play in a group again and I was itching to play the new annaversary edition, but about 2 days before the game, I got a mass e-mail from one of his family members saying that he passed away 2 nights earlier.
That’s a possibility for one or two of these members we’re talking about, maybe they have left more than just this site.

That’s a totally unacceptable excuse.
I expect no less than “rising from the grave” for this community. It’s the standard I hold my employee’s to at work; and if they’re going to use the ‘death’ excuse, I had better be informed in writing - atleast a week in advance.

Yes anybody except Mantlefan and Yoper. Hope that helps you.

hahahahah… too funny

Whatever happened to Brain Damaged?
-
Great Question!
I happen to know the answer… but can’t say it for the record.
-
I mess that guy who always misspelled his posts…. think his name was cmikee or something.
You needed codebreakers to figure out he posted at times.
Another one was Tekkyy and Adlertag…just disappeared.

cmikee? - maybe he was a navajo-swisslander?

I, too, was one of the MIA’s and have recently returned after a 2 year hiatus. Truth is, for myself and all of the people you have spoken about, the answer is simple. We were all kidnapped by aliens for our massive military genius to aid them in their conquest of this world. We will be leading the assault any day now.

Yeah, and I know who really killed Kennedy. Spill your guts, stool pigeon, or we’ll have to get nasty.
Ahhh, probably means he’s in jail or they’re looking for him. Moral of the story: take extra precautions to hide your illegal drug operation from the prying eyes of the authorities.
BTW, where’s Emperor Mollari?

BEAN!
AJ!
Cyan!
Yea… and EM.

My understanding from Brain Damaged… is that he had some moderate disagreements with the site and left…
