A low complexity game of a variety of civil war battles. Modular terrain through the use of hexagonal tiles allows for the setup of several famous civil war battle fields and a plethora of plastic civil war miniatures are used to represent the various forces during the conflict (infantry, cavalry, artillery and leaders). Players manage a hand of cards that provide different orders to your troops in the right flank, left flank and center position of the battlefield.
The game rules include the following scenarios:
First Bull Run--21st July, 1861
Pea Ridge--7th March, 1862
Kernstown--23rd March, 1862
Shiloh--6th April, 1862
Gaines Mill--27th June, 1862
Brawner's Farm--28th August, 1862
Antietam--17th September, 1862
Fredericksburg--13th December, 1862
Murfreesboro--31st December, 1862
Chancellorsville--3rd May, 1863
Gettysburg--2nd July, 1863
Gettysburg--3rd July, 1863
Chickamauga--20th September, 1863
New Market--15th May, 1864
New Hope Church--25th May, 1864
Tweaks to the effects of some cards, split fire and melee combat, added notion of morale checks. Includes unit types for War of 1812 and the American Revolution.
Hey All, This is a scenario I developed a few years ago for the original edition of Battle Cry. In keeping with the changes in the new edition to classic scenarios I would up the card count to 6 for the Union and 4 for the Confederates. I would also allow any Confederate unit that occupies the Angle to ignore the first flag rolled against it in addition to not being forced to retreat. Comments welcome, but be gentle. This was my first and only attempt at doing this!
Hi all,
Robert here: Use this XL File to create and print Hex Maps right from your computer. These Hexes will fit: Battlecry, Memoir 44, C&C Ancients, Battle Lore, Battle of Westros BL (The entire C&C Series). You can scale down the ratios of the cell Heights and Widths to fit ANY Hex Game out there too.
If you like, shade the cells to a color of your choice then print. You can also use colored paper and then print the grid over that to save on ink.
Use multiple sheets to create custom boards or if you have a plotter, you can create HUGE maps in a single print.
Distribute freely. The point is to have fun!
Thanks and please comment/email or ask for help if you need it!
Sincerely,
Robert Zimmer
