In the ACW game A House Divided…. crak units are subject to a minus 1 fire modifier. If they are entrenched there is also a -1, so, do these modifers accumulate to add up to -2…. if so most units could only be hit on a score of 1 ???

Yes, the penalties are cumulative. It may make it impossible to hit other units. Example: a militia infantry unit (combat value 2) firing at a crack unit in entrenchments can't hit. This is based on the Phalanx Games edition of the game. |

Yup. It is a weird game. It has some very good things, and it is a very nice representation of the war, but man can you lose easily, especially as the North. It rewards very cautious play. |

I enjoy the game. It's easy to learn and fun to play. |

It does make a very good campaign system for Fire & fury |

Big Union problem: surviving 1862. If you aren't careful Rebel cavalry can get into major northern cities. |

All the games our group has played, the South only hung on to win one time. We can't get volunteers to play the rebs anymore. |
