Another one. A bit harder.

Its your turn to pose a question Stardog.

Your turn for a question Nicwb

Not just the wrong side of a river, but the wrong side of his fortifications at the edge (and high above) that river. In BAB mainly for kicks we're including a map of the Beech Grove defenses 10 miles south of the battlefield for those who want to play a "what if?" scenario. (Plus that lets us have a scenario for the Union's late attack on the encampment.)

You forgot also dreadfully nearsighted - poor old Felix !

OK - a question - who's reputed final (and unfortunate) last words were "They couldn't hit an elephant at this distance".
