I've been looking at the ACW games from matrix and can't decide which one to get. 

Ageod's American Civil War
Forge of Freedom
Gary Grigsby's War Between The States

Which one would any of you recommend?

Victory Games - Civil War.

You get the added bonus of having Retard Camps in the Nortwest part of the map.

Are you talking about locking up Fremont and Halleck with one SP in St. Louis?

The complexity of the three games goes (from lower to higher):

GGWbtS => AACW => FoF

FoF was crap at release, but supposedly it's been cleaned up a fair bit. It's also the only one that allows for tactical battles. AACW seems to strike a good middle ground for most players. Can't comment on GGWbtS, but I recall forum comments not being too favorable.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
