Scourge of War Boards

<t>If only one of the big movie companies would make Last Full Measure, that is one of the most important periods in American history. Haven't read the book, but here's the events I would like to see on the big screen:<br/> <br/> 1-Start the movie with Lincoln's Gettysburg Address<br/> 2-Grant being...

<t>I think MarkT's point here is that long scenarios are hard to do because units just don't hold up to sustained fighting, as they may have done during the war. I found this out while working on scenarios for Shiloh, in real life Sherman's division held for 4 hours against repeated Confederate atta...
