Question similar to Alerted's below, but more of a wording thing - If I resolve column A, and win, I get 1 point. "You get one point for each column you win". I then consult the CRT and see that I move 1 space. However the only way I can see to get a score of +2 or +3 is after resolving all three columns first. But we're meant to do them one at a time, no?
I must be missing something. Is it 1 extra point for a winning column, over and above the amount by which I beat the union card with my card/s? That's the way it seems to make sense to me.
Man, fitting the rules on these postcards is a wargame in itself.

Thanks for the game :-) I made a quick post about on my Instagram site in case you are on that. The only question I had was when I was in the positive points and had the option to move. I played that I could advance any of my units and in the case of 2 moves I could advance one unit 2 spaces or 2 units one space each. Was that correct?

not exactly. when resolving combat you are only resolving one game board column A,B or C at a time. it is a 1v1 in each column, although i can see that you may have been doing all three game board columns with the three card columns. it should be; resolve combat for game board column A, the Column B, then column C. so you only have 1 unit that gets to move.
Hi Hissy!
Questions:
1) Can i rearrange the order of the confederate cards when i assign them to the union? example: I want my confederate jack from column 2 assigned against the Union 10 on column 3?
2) Combat constitutes all 3 phases correct? So if I'm resolving combat in row A...the union cards and confederate cards combat result only apply to row A, right?
Sorry for all the questions 😅
second question, you resolve each column separately. example column A - Union has a 7 and I played a 3 and a 5, I win the column 8-7 and get 1 point, column B is uncontested, Union wins 1 point, Column C, Union has an 8, i played a K, I win column C and win a point. I win the combat 2-1 so check the +1 row in the combat results table. I really struggled to explain this to fit on the postcard...LOL
Thank You for Your submission :) It was and still is a very interesting experience - to see and enjoy that many diverse designs.
