Maps

From the first clash at Manassas to the epic confrontation between Lee and Grant, the Brother Against Brother series will bring new levels of historical detail and realism to the battles of the Civil War. This regimental-level game, created by the developers of the award-winning Forge of Freedom, builds on that game’s acclaimed tactical engine, adding scrupulously researched orders of battle, high-quality map graphics, command and control rules reflecting the numerous challenges faced by army commanders, and plenty other features. Beginning with The Drawing of The Sword – which recreates the pivotal opening battles at Manassas , Wilson ’s Creek, Mill Springs and Williamsburg – Brother Against Brother lets you refight the Civil War from start to finish.

I would recommend a freeware program called IrfanView:

It can read PCX files and has a print option.

Hey bazjak,

If you looking to create a map or scenario and want some help with the files, let me know and I'll see what I can do. I've done a lot of scenario creation with JTS ACW, TOAW and PG series.

Let me know if I can help.

I'm curios to see how this thing works too.

Hopefully its not a monster process for a small little scenario to create [;)]

This software looks good, I'll give it a go and see about creating a few maps of mine own and trying them out, the game fun, basic, wish Matrix updated it more but we got what we got so we run with it, thanks, Floyd.
