Did anyone get the new Longstreet rulebook? How does it look? is it worth the money?

I've been trying to get some of the club members off their Black Powder habit and Longstreet is doing the trick. It's expensive, but I highly recommend it and all the players I have played with agree. It's our third Longstreet game in a row on Thursday club night.

Tonight's game was a victory for the South as the Northern attackers failed to take the objective - a big old supply of small arms. It may be argued that it was a draw, as both sides were broken by the final turn.

We're comfortable with the rules now and had little recourse to checking the rule book, save for the odd situation that we hadn't come up against before. Very simple and very elegant.
