Hi, imagine that you have the power to place and replace army, corps and division commanders before the great offensive-minded period in the beginning of 1864. Armies had some rest and were gathering more troops, it's now time to decide who you would put in command.
Rules : Officers should still alive in March 1864 and they have to be in Western or Eastern theaters (no Magruder nor Kirby Smith for the South, no Curtis nor Steele for the North). Otherwise, try to respect a few seniority between officers and anything else is allowed (sorry, I'm concentrating on infantry commands, but cavalry and artillery are welcome !).
Here's my proposition, I hope several others would follow. Enjoy !
