If it turns out anything like your Burnside's Bridge and Miller's Cornfield tables, it should be brilliant! Cheers, Barry |

Thanks, Barry. We won't bring it out to a convention until its at least as good as those two. We can do the terrain, but developing a scenario that works and is fun is the trick! We'll be pushing the envelope with this game. |

Some pictures of our work in-progress for our game at Historicon. link Title: Fort DeRussy, Louisiana – March 14, 1864
Description: A small Confederate garrison of holds the fortification known as Fort DeRussy in front of a much larger Union force at the start of the Red River Campaign. Just a few weeks later, this same Union army will be defeated at the battle of Mansfield. What if the Confederates had moved a little quicker, and the Union army a little slower, and instead the two armies fought over possession of the fort?

"If you make it here, we'll definitely save a spot for you!" Thanks! The bridge looks brilliant. The fortifications ain't half bad either. |

The set up was amazing. I wish I could have played, but another game got in the way. Please do it again! |
| firstvarty1979 | 22 Jul 2013 9:49 a.m. PST |
We will definitely run it again. It's only a question of when. Fall In is a possibility if our schedules can work out. |
