Description

Gettysburg 1863 is Volume IV in the Old School Wargames Civil War Brigade Battle series. Gamers get to refight the historic and pivotal battle of Gettysburg in 1863 using a large mounted map board, large pieces, and a streamlined set of series rules that is just 8 -12 pages long. The Battle Booklet will give you historical details, design, notes and 6 scenarios:

July 1 - Meeting Engagement

July 1 - Take That Hill (Can Ewell take Culp's Hill?) (one map)

July 2 - The Fight for the Flanks

July 2 - The Fight for Little Round Top (one map)

July 3 - Lee's Folly

July 1 - July 4 (the full battle with an optional July 4th day for gamers)

The single day scenarios should take between 1 to 3 hours to play with the full battle taking 6 - 10 hours to play.

Special rules for early or late arrival of reinforcements, follow up attacks, new terrain rules for multi level hex changes, a new rout rule, and more!

Gettysburg 1863 is easily playable by teams of 3 or more with each player taking command of a corps in either the Union or Confederate armies.
