Re: Wanted: history buff with some time
What about posting the battles here. Then people can respond to the battles they think they can handle.
You may not care about war, but war cares about you!

My ancient history is a bit weak, but I would be willing to something for MTW.

Re: Wanted: history buff with some time
Perhaps the best approach for selecting a battle would be to load (vanilla) RTW and give the Historical Battles a try. Pick one that seems interesting to play and let us know here in this thread which battle you propose to do - we don't want 10 people doing the same battle. Then go to work. What I would suggest is that you do a rough outline or draft and then PM it to bar to make sure what you are doing is what he had in mind. Does that make sense?
Also, for the actual historical part, keep track of where you got the information if you used books or web sites as references. You should acknowledge any sources you used.
