Title: ACW battle of Seven Pines Day 1 in 6mm
Post by: Grymauch on November 10, 2019, 07:39:22 PM
This is the ACW battle of Seven Pines Day 1 taken from the Fire & Fury Great Eastern Battles Scenario Book but using Guns at Gettysburg rules. As each unit represented a brigade a few tweaks had to be made to the rules, mainly around formations and command & control. Day 2 will be played next with 1/2 casualties carried over. A full AAR is on my blog including more photos.Figures are Baccus 6mm.

That looks awesome!

The visual effect reminds me of those American Heritage books, with their overhead battlefield paintings.
