	Description Edit \| History

A tactical and operational-level game of the battle of Gettysburg. The game's focus is on morale and command; the operational game is a double-blind recreation of the movements leading up to the battle, the results of which are transferred to the tactical maps.

The game includes a tactical map area of 51x44", two 17x22" operational maps, 980 counters, and numerous player aids and charts. This monster game's graphics were done by the game's designer--the prominent wargame artist Rick Barber, and the results are visually highly impressive. The tactical maps are extremely detailed, and feature virtually every feature on the actual battlefield.

Nominee for the 1998 Charles S. Roberts awards for Best Pre-World War II Boardgame (Charles S. Roberts Awards).

Alternate Summer Storm in a Teacup CRT

v.96 I made this adjustment to the Summer Storm in a Teacup CRT for one reason. The rules are fast (and fun) no doubt. But I missed the "both attacker and defender" suffer during combat. So, I created this CRT with some ideas borrowed from ASL and the Gamers CWB series. NOTICE: this has not been extensively playtested. Also, I intended this to be used with the Army Charts that come with the game. It will work better with the 1.4 charts at Mitchell Land's support site but alternatively you can use the loss chits that come with the game (but that means more clutter for you minimalist folks. :) Lastly, I use the loss charts to track the Shaken/broken status of the brigades. If half or more of the brigade/division is shaken (or broken), the brigade/division is shaken (or...
