Battle of Moore's Farm, 26 April 1862 {2012}
« on: April 29, 2012, 04:30:57 PM »
Jon and I fought out an entertaining ACW battle here in GHQ last week, using my own 'Bull Run to Gettysburg' rules. There is a full photo account over on my Blog, but here are a few taster pictures ~

The Union right, failing to drive off a smaller Rebel force occupying Moore's Farm.

The Union centre, fatally weakened in a prolonged firefight.

Correspondent from "Harper's Weekly" braving Rebel fire to bring his readers a first hand account of another Union defeat...

Nice game, you had fun.  How refreshing to see a reporter in the field instead of just tapping people's telegraph lines.............  :D
