Three (3a, 3b and 3c) may be combined into a mini campaign, and two (6a and 6b) are played as a campaign. There is also an outline for constructing a ‘Design Your Own’ scenario. All of the scenarios have a similar format and are organized into the following sections; Reference Scenario #10: Trent’s Reach – January 1865 Scenario Name and Date Union Forces (10) • The (10) indicates the number of Action Cards the Union player is dealt. • The six ships and forts the Union player commands identified by letters “A” through “F”. *Confederate Forces (10) • The asterisk (*) indicates that the Confederate player plays first. • The (10) indicates the number of Action Cards the Confederate player is dealt. • The seven ships the Confederate player commands identified by letters “T” through “Z”. • Place an ‘Elite Grade’ Marker on USS Onondaga, and ‘Crack Grade’ Markers on USS Massasoit, CSS Fredericksburg, CSS Richmond, CSS Virginia II and CSS Drewry. Play Area Layout • Indicates banks along the map edges (if any), the starting position of each unit, on or off the play area, torpedo/mines or obstructions (if any), and any other reference markers. Forts Heavy Slow Current Obstructions & Direction Ships starting on Union play area Side Ships Confederate starting off Side play area Exit side for Shoal Victory Bank Depth Conditions • Ships start as indicated, on or off of the play area. Those starting off the play area must Maneuver to enter the play area. • Note that Forts are typically positioned off the play area, but are considered to occupy the adjacent Grid Box for range purposes. Version 4 2 Iron & Oak Special Rules • Rules unique to just this scenario. • Wind is always Normal unless a Special Rule indicates it is Fresh. Victory Conditions • The condition(s) either side must meet to win the battle. If neither side meets the conditions, or if both sides meet the conditions, the battle is a draw. Some scenarios are played until one side achieves victory, for example Scenario #8. • A ship is considered to have taken ‘Light Damage’ once it has suffered sufficient Hits to use the second line of its Maneuver Chart. It has taken ‘Heavy Damage’ if it has suffered sufficient Hits to use the bottom (third) line of its Maneuver Chart. Optional Rules • While not the case with Scenario #10, some scenarios have optional rules that may be employed if all players agree, for example Scenario #2. Version 4 3 Iron & Oak Scenario 1: Two Times is the Charm – June or November 1861 Union Forces (6) *Confederate Forces (6) (A) USS Brooklyn (Average) {June 1861} or (Z) CSS Sumter (Crack) (A) USS Iroquois (Average) {November 1861} Special Rules • Fresh Wind. • Sumter Maneuvers to enter starting on Turn 1. • Sumter may not be given a Maneuver 2 Order. Victory Conditions Union: Prevent the Confederate victory conditions. No turn limit. Confederate: Exit Sumter under power with less than Heavy Damage. No turn limit. Historical Notes Both in June 1861, when leaving the Mississippi Delta, and in November when departing St. Pierre, Martinique, Sumter successfully eluded the Union blockaders. Confederate Victory. Version 4 4 Iron & Oak Scenario 2: Hampton Roads – March 1862 *Union Forces (8) Confederate Forces (8) • (A) USS Minnesota (Average) • (Y) CSS Virginia (Crack) {Grounded in position} • (Z) CSS Patrick Henry (Average) • (B) USS Monitor (Crack) • (C) USS Zouave (Average) Special Rules • Place a ‘Grounded’ marker on Minnesota. She may not be given a Refloat Order. • Zouave Maneuvers to enter on any turn or may remain out of the action for the entire battle. Victory Conditions • Union: Prevent the Confederate Victory Conditions. • Confederate: Sink Minnesota by Turn 30 while Virginia suffers less than Heavy Damage. Optional Rules • Minnesota may be given a Refloat Order (exception to the Special Rule above) to break free, but she suffers an automatic and permanent ‘Engine-S’ critical hit and must still perform the Engine-D check to determine if there is a “WL” Critical Hit. She may be towed to exit by Zouave, but may not drift off the map. • During action the previous day against the Union ships Congress and Cumberland, Virginia suffered damage to both her smokestack and ram: o At the start of the game, place a ‘Smokestack’ critical hit marker on Virginia. She does not start the game with any associated hits, and; o Virginia may still initiate ram attacks, but if successful must apply a “-2” modifier to the d10d6d4 ram damage roll. • Planning to engage only the unarmored Minnesota, Virginia carried just explosive shell instead of solid shot for her guns. Virginia must apply a “-2” modifier to combat die rolls against USS Monitor. • Fearing her new guns would burst under a full-charge load; Monitor’s 11” Dahlgrens were only using two-thirds of the designed powder load. Monitor must apply a “-2” modifier to her combat die rolls. Historical Notes Surprised by the presence of Monitor, Virginia was unable to close on the beleaguered Minnesota. Instead forced to engage this never-before seen type of Union ship, Virginia was unable to reach her objective as Monitor battled her to a standoff. As the tide ran out, the Confederate ships were forced to withdraw. Union Victory. Version 4 5 Iron & Oak Scenario 3a: Vicksburg Blockade – July 1862 Union Forces (8) *Confederate Forces (6) • (A) USS Carondelet (Crack) • (Z) CSS Arkansas (Crack) • (B) USS Tyler (Average) • (C) USS Queen of the West (Average) Special Rules • (None) Victory Conditions • Union: Prevent the Confederate Victory Conditions • Confederate: Exit Arkansas under power no earlier than Turn 20 or later than Turn 30 with less than Heavy Damage. Linked Scenarios • Scenarios 3a, 3b and 3c may be played as a mini-campaign game. • Queen of the West, Essex and Arkansas carry over damage from scenario to scenario. • Arkansas may attempt repairs

  • Appendix As Too Inclusive
    Color profile: Disabled Composite Default screen Appendix I A Chronological List of Cases Involving the Landing of United States Forces to Protect the Lives and Property of Nationals Abroad Prior to World War II* This Appendix contains a chronological list of pre-World War II cases in which the United States landed troops in foreign countries to pro- tect the lives and property of its nationals.1 Inclusion of a case does not nec- essarily imply that the exercise of forcible self-help was motivated solely, or even primarily, out of concern for US nationals.2 In many instances there is room for disagreement as to what motive predominated, but in all cases in- cluded herein the US forces involved afforded some measure of protection to US nationals or their property. The cases are listed according to the date of the first use of US forces. A case is included only where there was an actual physical landing to protect nationals who were the subject of, or were threatened by, immediate or po- tential danger. Thus, for example, cases involving the landing of troops to punish past transgressions, or for the ostensible purpose of protecting na- tionals at some remote time in the future, have been omitted. While an ef- fort to isolate individual fact situations has been made, there are a good number of situations involving multiple landings closely related in time or context which, for the sake of convenience, have been treated herein as sin- gle episodes. The list of cases is based primarily upon the sources cited following this paragraph.

  • John Dahlgren the Plymouth Rifle
    JOHN DAHLGREN And THE PLYMOUTH RIFLE Marc Gorelick, VGCA The author thanks Tim Prince of College Hill Arsenal (www.collegehillarsenal.com) and Cliff Sophia of CS Arms (www.csarms.com) for the use of their photographs. Few Americans today know who John Dahlgren was, or the role he played in the Civil War. Most Civil War and navy history buffs who recognize his name identify him as a Union Admiral and ordnance expert who developed a number of naval cannon. Indeed, for his achievements in developing naval cannon he became known as the “father of American naval ordnance.” But to the gun collecting community Dahlgren was also a small arms expert and the inventor of the unique Plymouth Rifle. Photo courtesy Tim Prince, College Hill Arsenal, www.collegehillarsenal.com DAHLGREN’S NAVY CAREER John Adolphus Bernard Dahlgren was born on November 13, 1809 in Philadelphia, the son of Bernhard Ulrik Dahlgren, the Swedish Consul in Philadelphia. Like another Swedish-American, John Ericsson, the inventor of the screw propeller, turret and ironclad monitor, Dahlgren was to have a profound effect on the U.S. Navy. Dahlgren joined the United States Navy in 1826 as a midshipman. He served in the U.S. Coastal Survey from 1834 to 1837 where he developed his talents for mathematics and scientific theory. He was promoted to lieutenant, and after a number of cruises was assigned as an ordnance officer at the Washington Navy Yard in 1847. Dahlgren was in his element as an ordnance officer. He excelled as a brilliant engineer and was soon given more and more responsibility.

    FORT MORGAN NEWS July 2019~Issue 149 PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Greetings to all FMCA members! Greeting to all FMCA members! Especially those of you that are new to our association, welcome! First, I would like to thank everyone for submitting your comments for presentation to the Special Baldwin County Planning and Zoning meeting that was held on June 19th, I was impressed by the number of responses that we received. I was afforded an opportunity to speak on behalf of the association and while I was not able to voice all your concerns, I feel that many of the “hot button” issues facing our District were brought up. We hope to see some new ordinances adopted by the County soon that will help to resolve some of the issues in our community. The Executive Board has been very busy in the past week and I expect we will have a few items to vote on at the coming meeting. As always, I encourage each member of our association to help spread the word about the Fort Morgan Civic Association. If your neighbors aren’t members yet, invite them to a meeting! I hope I will see you at our next meeting on July 8th.

    Asians and Pacific Islanders in the Civil War March 2015 Note: This is a working document. The names noted in bold designate soldiers and sailors whose service has been confirmed and corroborated by various sources.
