Weather Question

First off I want to say that this looks magnificent. I have a question about the screen shots. I don't want to nitpick but they look somewhat dark and hazy, like the daylight isn't at full effect. I know that it was cloudy on every day of the battle followed by storms on the 4th, is that why the shots look a little dark?

Our weather and cloud cover proportions are based on the actual weather at Gettysburg, as shown here: http://gburginfo.brinkster.net/weather.htm. Excluding the first action of each day, there was also a lot of gunpowder smoke in the air and that combined with very light winds made it appear darker than just the cloud cover would suggest. On July 2, Union troops moving up to the line an hour before sunset, thought that they were going in at sunset.

Your attention to detail is sure to make this game one for the ages

Thanks. Our goal is to have this as close to being there in 1863 as you can get without an actual working time machine.
