Does anyone here know which Wargamer's Digest issue Wally Simon's ACW skirmish rules was in? |

Thanks for that link, I had already checked it out yesterday while googling information on Walter Simon. However unless I missed it I didn't find anything about his ACW skirmish rules that's in a late 1970's or early 1980's Wargamer's Digest issue. |

Went through my collection. I only found one set of rules. Wargamer's Digest Vol. 4 No. 1 November 1976. They were not done by wally Simon unfortunately. They are not bad fast play rules. We used them in the 70's with Airfix figures, since we were students and the figures were cheep. |

After searching through numerous boxes in my storage shed I managed to find photo copies of both articles written by Walter Simon, "Skirmish Gaming Rules for the ACW" and "A Modern Skirmish Campaign". I've had both articles for probably 30 years but had misplaced them.
Anyway thanks to everyone who had responded. |
