A Newbie's AAR Introduction to HPS ACW Campaign series

[Bluto]

I have enjoyed reading this thread about my battle with mntineer. It is always interesting to learn of the viewpoint from the other side of the 'table'. For my part, by this point in the game (turn 10), my 'brilliant' tactics had all been thwarted by mntineer's moves, the disparity in numbers and movement, and the overall lousy quality of my units (most were D quality). I had been reduced to trying to concentrate my units in a relatively defensible area, namely Sharpsburg, where my strategy was simply reduced to hoping I could protect at least this objective hex! I also knew something that mntineer did not. I will allow him to reveal this particular surprise.

Oh yes, in case you are wondering, I did not use this thread for 'intelligence' gathering, as I did not discover it until near the end of our game.
