Due to my defeat against Fingolin, I am looking for a reb opponent (yankee may be good also).
I can send an average of 1 file by day.

Sounds fine to me.
Only house rules that i was thinking are ones controlling raiding.
People have different approaches to this and here is what ive been thinking.
Raiding involving, pillaging, destruction of railways or structures in opponents home states only by units with a leader.
(Raid like Griersons http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grierson%27s_Raid or Merrits http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Burning_Raid )
Raiding involving, attack, ambush and capture of enemy troops, railways or structures in opponents home states is allowed by units without a leader.
(Raid like Stovepipe Johnsons http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newburgh_Raid or Gilmors http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilmor%27s_Raid )
Raiding involving, pillaging, destruction of railways or structures in players home states can be done by units without a leader.
I think disputed border states W.Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Kansas Territory and Indian Territory should be open to both players as home states regarding raiding.
Raiding (and off course all other) river movement in enemy owned territory has to be done with naval units.
What do you think? Did i miss something, i typed this of the top of my head so bare with me.

I think this house rules will be hard to control and to organize.
Sorry but, I'd prefer to play without raiding rules.

Well i can play without them but i think the union is vulnerable if raiding is not restricted.

If you want I can take Union.

Moderators can close this topic, please.

You should be able to do so yourself; if you have tried already, can you try again (I've done a small tweak to the forum settings now that should help)
