Inaugural FoF AAR - Union side

[cillmhor]

Early September 1861:

I am beginning to switch more production to money and horses, as they are what I need to produce troops and weapons. My hospitals that I built and the hospital attributes I trained on some troops seems to have done the trick as disease is now claiming far less of my troops.

Building more naval acadamies to improve naval research, also building some ships. My blockade of Norfolk has caused some unrest (5 turns) as has my blockade of New Orleans (1 turn). Going to leave the muster option alone for a little while as the attitude of some governors has dropped quite low. May now have to produce some units, which is more expensive.

The fort at Pensacola will fall in the next couple of turns. In the west I have moved into southern Missouri and I am looking to at least strike a threatening posture on the Mississipi. In the east still trying to scramble to get men together in divisions and corps and under command, oh and equipped. Meanwhile the Army of Northern Virginia and a separate Corps under Longstreet have moved north and west of Richmond threatening the Cumberland Gap and Washington. Looks like Peter is going to strike before winter comes...
