Morten brought the beer from Denmark. It is special bottle made for commemorating the Battle of Dybbol in 1864.

That looked immense fun Konstantinos. I've now played it four times, in both 15mm and 3mm. The Rebs need to move fast to make any real headway.

You will. I can manage FPW, RJW, ACW and SYW - so anything's possible.

to be frank Chris was very lucky in getting me on-board. I was infatuated with Altar of Freedom (still think it has one of best scenario supplements out there and excellent CnC systems). Asked if there was something similar for 19th century. Viola Chris! And he had a Domokos scenario! A Domokos SCENARIO I say! He also is very helpful with scenario helping. So know to put it in GOT terms I am his man.

I'd certainly encourage you to! We've had a lot of fun fighting ACW battles with BBB. Personally I really like The Wilderness; obviously fighting all three days of Gettysburg is a must; and there are plenty more scenarios in the BBB Yahoo group files.
