It is one of the better old games. Designed by Richard Hamblen. Steve Likevich mad the ADC2 module although I added a few things later and converted it to VASSAL. It's posted on the VASSAL module pages.

What have you been playing?

I made VASSAL modules of Streets of Stalingrad and Italia (Anzio) lately. Never played SoS and only played Anzio in the original. Still messing around with ADC2 mostly.

Yeah, I can't wait for the HoB Antietam game to come out; got to see it played at PrezCon last year. Sounds like you are a Civil War tactical gamer of the hard core variety. I have problems choosing between SUMMER STORM, THIS HALLOWED GROUND, and THREE DAYS OF GETTYSBURG! So many games, so little time....

I did nearly 30 years in the USMC active duty and am enjoying retirement!
