Gettysburg - Day 2

Date: 27th July 2019
Place: Chateau Mosquito

Table size: 8X6


Day 2 of Gettysburg, Little Round Top. A game in detail of the actions around the end of line, as the 20th Maine hold out against superior numbers


Objectives

Union

Hold the line. Fall back and the Rebels will sweep along the flank. Make use of the terrain and barricades that can be constructed. 


Confederate

Engage with the Union and force them back, opening up a flank attack to overwhelm the Union forces


Deployment

Union

Deployment is across a diagonal line across the mid section of the table, facing Southwest. Terrain is wooded and broken. Basic fortifications have been created to help protect the men.

Considerations - ammo is a concern. You have roughly eight turns worth of shooting before ammo begins to run low. From then, roll a dice after each shot from a regiment, on a roll of a 1, they have enough ammo left for one last round of firing.

Confederate

Deploy across the Southwestern edge of the table.
