I wrote up a rather detailed battle report on our recent test game for Arichtects of War's new skirmish rule set for the American Civil War entitled "Uncivil War".
The game was a blast and featured a waterborne assault, calvary battles, looting and a brave last stand in a Pig Sty - one of the most fun table top games I've ever played.
Ernie has posted the report on his website so you'll need to click on the link below - I think you'll find it worth the time to read it.

Great looking report .... so what was the final verdict regarding the rules ? Yeah or nah ?
jmezz - the rules are shaping up very nicely. There's a nice historical feel to the basic mechanics and the character based special rules add a lot of fun and color to the game. I should point out I'm somewhat biased as the rules are being published by a friend and I've been play testing them for a good bit. I give them two thumbs up!
Great looking game - gorgeous table and scenery. The rules are interesting - I take it they are a skirmish set bit like an ACW version of Disposable Heroes? My only criticism - a very minor one - is that the pics weren't click-able.
Looks like it was a lot of fun though and you can't do enough play-testing right?
Cheers,

Doc - sorry about the pictures, I think that was my fault when I made the PDF. I'll get some of the pictures posted here so you can see some of the details.
Play testing is a blast and it's rewarding to see one of my bone headed suggestions actually used!
Great looking game, and a very enjoyable report!
Nice report and even better terrain. That looked like an enjoyable time! The rules do sound fun...and ACW raids are certainly something I have contemplated.
