Hey Phalanx! No such luck…, I’m still here. Sometimes I am sidetracked with “honeydo” items, or wood projects. This time I decided go dig out one of the monster games I’ve been collecting and learn how to play. Thunder in the East is still set up under the 2nd level of my table. My problem now is that my wife wants a cabinet like I just did for my saw blades for her hobby stuff. I’m retired, but somehow I’m busier than ever, which I guess is a good thing. Stay tuned…, I’m ramping up on a play demo video for “Whirlpool” coming soon to a KZbin channel near you. - Paul

@@theoakenknight1748 honey do this and honey do that? That's why I went back to work after retiring at 55. My wife was worse than a FedEx supervisor . Did you ever go to Chickamauga and Lookout Mountain battlefield?...they have a cool diorama of the battle. Also I drove through Gettysburg.

Hey Paul! Hope all is well! Thanks so much for this terrific overview. I appreciate the kind comments. I don't know if I have the most number of different ACW series but I may have the record for the most games that cover some portion of Gettysburg! 😆 I really like Blue Panther's production quality and Alex Zatarain's artwork and I appreciate their hard work on this project. Thanks again and hope you enjoy it!

Hey Hermann! And made in ‘merica is awesome sauce! I’ll be following up with a play demo video so the good folks at Blue Panther get their moneys worth out of me. Tell them that my almost 70 year old eyes really appreciate the 12 point type font in the rule book. - Paul

@@theoakenknight1748 Ha! That was Ryan Heilman's handiwork ... we both agreed that we needed to get that book as legible as possible and he did a great job laying it out.

I am pleased with mine. I ordered the version with the canvas map. It will still need some plexi or clamps to lay flat but maybe over time it will stretch out. One of my counter sheets was heavily misaligned so the numbers were "lost" when punched. That was quickly replaced by the publisher when I sent them a photo (GREAT SERVICE!). One minor thing is the box size I received is slightly too small to fit a standard counter tray. I tried several brands. Not the end of the world. Baggies or half counter trays (or maybe trimmed trays--I haven't tried that) can work but just an observation. I do like that they made the box thick to fit all your stuff, 2 copies of the play aids, & easily legible cards!!

Hi Jim. I have everything punched but have not yet stored the counters. I was hoping to use a counter tray but sounds like it’s time to pull out my snack-sized baggies instead. Glad to hear Blue Panther helped you out, and also hopefully they get better at counter alignment. I’ll be pushing counters tomorrow, so a play demo video won’t be too far behind. Thanks for commenting! - Paul
