The 4CDs Strategy and Wargame Shop has kindly agreed to sponsor another special 4CDs Challenge, by offering a free copy of the new Sid Meier's Gettysburg computer game to the first person who correctly answers both the following questions:-

• Q1: The following quote comes from the manual of a classic computer wargame:-

  'The proficiency ratings of leaders subtract from the base command control number of units'.

  What is the name of the game, what company produced it and who designed it?

• Q2: What are the title and publisher of the current Grognard Challenge game? This you have to recognise from scans of two map sections and two sets of units on the Web-Grognards homepage.
