Okay, so after looking through Hurricane Season again, I'm thinking that maybe we would be better off just forgoing doing one of the missions. However, there are some interesting Nation-specific commodore rules and some neat deployment rules that I think it might be worthwhile trying out. The commodore rules give some different bonuses depending on the nation, such as re-rolling treacherous terrain tests or a critical hit table roll. The deployment rules allow players to divide their fleet up into sections, with one part in the normal 8" zone, a second part further up towards the middle of the table, and a third part that can flank by moving on to the board from either side edge. What do you think?

Also, how big of a game did you want to play? Since we are starting early, I was thinking we could do a larger game, say around 1,000 points.

That sounds good to me.  I didn't pick up Hurricane Season, so I'm not familiar with those options, but it should be fine.  1,000 points sounds good to me.  Looking forward to facing your Prussians again! (Although I'll probably regret saying that)

I was actually going to run my French, though I might be fielding a few models that aren't fully painted ;).

Yeah, I didn't think about that until after I had posted it.  I'm so used to thinking about Prussians when I play against you.  RoF is cool too.  But I'm going to play the special "Andy only gets half AD for everything" card in Turn 1.

Hee hee, turn one would be OK, given that long range shooting isn't RoF's strong pont  ;).

Oh, you misunderstand--that's a special G card (as in, the effects last during the entire game).
