Description Edit | History

This game is a simulation of the battle which took place between Lee's Army of Northern Virginia and Meade's Army of the Potomac at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania during the first four days of July 1863. It was first published as a supplement to Command magazine Issue #17.

Included in the game are a 22 x 34" mapsheet, 200 counters, and 18 pages of rules.

To win the game, the Confederate player must inflict heavy casualties on the Union army and/or move his own train off the map to the southwest. The Union player must resist the Confederates drive while inflicting heavy losses on the Confederates.

Republished in Command Magazine Japan #29 in 1999, together with The Moscow Option: Guderian's Gambit.

Nominee for the 1992 Charles S. Roberts awards for Best Pre-World War II Boardgame (Charles S. Roberts Awards).
