I enjoyed playing very much. Great idea to get people involved in something educational. I learned a great deal about some historical figures I knew nothing about.

Thanks again to the ACG staff!

I may have lost but it was a friggin blast. Hope you guys wait on the worst until I'm through with bootcamp and weapons training. I would like to participate in that one too. But it will be next spring/summer before I get through with all of that. But once I'm in MOS school I'll have a little time to get on here.

Goodnight Chesty, where ever you are!

Very enjoyable as usual.

I just wish more people would appreciate Frederick II.

My thoughts too. Even though Manstein lost.

Thanks to the ACG and forum staff for all they do!

So it's official - Gustavus is the best general of all time alongside Napoleon?

Perfect conclusion even if the road getting here didn't make as much sense.

Gustav Adolph. Though I wouldn't say he was the best general ever.
