Okay guys..I've been re-bitten by the ACW bug...and I am looking to get a couple of copies of the old "Rally Round the Flag" rules. So far they are still my favorite, (although I use a different basing system). Does anyone know where I can get a couple of copies? Thanks

Except for sending you a photocopy of mine from Australia here,no. I haven't seen any for 10 years! While we still play it once a year, we've mainly gone for "On To Richmond" from The Courier. Even thats next to impossible to get, the original version being in a Courier so it can be downloaded from MagWeb.

I'm in Louisiana and am willing to send you a xerox copy of it if that would be acceptable to you. ccooper827@charter.net is my e-mail address.

I just bought a copy from Old Glory. Try them.

Don; I believe that he is looking for the old rules called "Rally Round the Flag" - Old Glory has the new version. If in the US, contact the Source in St. Paul, Mn. They still have some copies. You can get the information you need to contact them by looking it up on their web page.

Yes they are back in print LH

Thanks Guys!

Does anyone have a link, or point of contact for "The Source" in St. Paul, MN?

The original rules are still published by the guy in Muskogee, OK who owns the rights. He won't let them be updated or revised but he will be happy to sell you a set. I think his company was the Iron Brigade. Sorry, can't remember his name or address although I toured his shop/factory some years ago. Anyone in the Tornado Alley HMGS that can help out with info? Merle Haggard was from Muskogee but I think he's deceased.

Hi Shag... yeah the original set is from Iron Brigade Miniatures. I have the addy, and telephone number, but he doesn't have a website...grrr..That's the set I am looking for. It's difficult to get in touch with him though. No..Merle ain't dead...he's hosting his 3rd Annual UFO Music Fest 6 miles west of Clovis NM on 3rd July... merlehaggard.com
