If someone blows up my wagon-load of fine Tennessee sippin whiskey and Kentucky Bourbon I shall unleash a fury which hell hath never seen upon "those people".

See what I mean JC! This could turn into something real vicious, nobody wants a "Whiskey War", the Civil War would come to a abpurt end if all the men had to fight over stills. Besides Jamesessons is a Irish whiskey made outside North America, most likely consumed by the 69th NY which needed it to get the courage to fight. :laugh:

Ha,:laugh: i'll tell you what, i've never seen a supply wagon yet in TC2M loaded with;
Jameson,
fried chicken,
fine Tennessee sippin whiskey,
pizza,
Kentucky Bourbon,
ice cream?,
NOT even hardtack!:huh:

OK, i'll compromise!
A red halo would mean an ordnance supply wagon which would be blown up on sight!!! :woohoo: :)

Now if a wagon has a green halo, that would mean its a liquor wagon which would then have to be captured at all hazards by order of the Commanding General!!! :laugh: :blink:

When Stuart's calvary raided the supply base near West Point, Virginia in 1862 they dined on lobster tails.

Now that base would be worth some extra Victory Points.

Yeah and if that supply wagon happened to have hot butter sauce to go with the lobster tails and some whiskey to wash it all down...even more extra points! :)

The more i think on it, the more i like the idea of each Division having two supply wagons, one for ordnance and one for food. Maybe their canvas colors or halos could be different colors to distinguish them from each other?

Ya know I was thinking along the same line(s). Cause I got to thinking about long scenerios and did anybody stop to eat? or need provisions other than munitions, like water on a hot day, something like that, that would affect a units performance. Or would a second wagon make play too ainnal(sp) annal(?). Just kicking the idea around.

If you capture the booze wagon, then all of your soldiers execute the 'lie down' command for the next 8 hours.:ohmy: After that they will execute the 'toss cookies' command.:S Followed by loud complaining about an entire battery of 24lb howitzers that seems to be firing inside their heads .....
