Three years ago our club played the Cold Harbor scenario from the All Quiet on the Potomac scenario book, and last night four of us decided to revisit the engagement at the crossroads. This scenario represents the opening afternoon of what would eventually become a three-day battle. During the late afternoon of June 1, both Grant and Lee are shuttling forces south, probing for the far flank of each other's line. Check out some photos of our game after the break and see if Early and Anderson's corps could rewrite history and seize the crossroads at Cold Harbor! And at the very end of this post, you'll find a quick update on our next campaign supplement. |
Cold Harbor, June 1 1864
Don't forget to Vote!
Several weeks ago we announced our first-ever exercise in democracy at 6mmACW, with players able to vote for the next campaign supplement they want to see published. There are six candidates (plus the option for a write-in ballot) and voting ends on July 4. Our Vicksburg campaign is steadily closing in on 1,000 downloads to date and we've received a great response in voting for the next one. Remember to cast your ballot before the 4th and check back the following week to see the full results. We'll not only reveal the winner, but also the breakdown of all the votes, as well as the write-ins. So far, it's shaping up to be a tighter race than I expected! --GRW |
