After the failures of the previous days' fighting, General Sherman finds the bulk of his corps trapped along the Natchez Trace. In a precarious potential pincer counter-attack, Sherman must prevaricate!
We had a spectacular day of #TravellerRPG , with our big damn heroes committing a little light corporate espionage at the General Corp. Shipyard.
A rusted Kinunir-class hulk led to perilous interaction with a predator!
A mysterious Aslan femme-fatale enters the stage!

Just a reminder that TOMORROW night (6/7) at 2100 EDT / 1800 PDT, Kai Jensen and I will be reviewing the fun potential of the Random Scenario Generator for Combat Commander!

General Grant is elated to discover the inertia that has struck Pemberton along the Natchez Trace. He orders Sherman and McClernand to take advantage of this. Let's see what happens today!

I managed to get the editing for this month's 'Tale from the #CombatCommander Ladder' finished just in time to coincide with Memorial Day.
This month, we played through a scene from the 1942 Dieppe Raid during Operation Jubilee.
We were down a couple of Players today, but used it as an opportunity!
Three slightly inebriated members of the Blackwell's crew spent a couple hours in the Regina Highport Space Combat Simulator.
Much hilarity ensued, and two pirate corvettes were dispatched!
The strain of indecision descends upon Pemberton and Command Paralysis again befalls the Confederates as we start Session #5. This is an opportunity for Grant to push farther up the Natchez Trace towards Jackson!

**An early premier!**
The Union is facing Pemberton's butternut roadblock of the Natchez Trace! Tune in this week to see if Grant can make some forward progress alongside the bayou.

We're back after a month off! I hope you missed us.
It's time to return with Session #3 of 'The Vicksburg Campaign'. When we last left the Union, they were struggling to make progress in the bayou!
