Chickamauga is a brigade-level simulation of the battle of September 19-20th, 1863 along Chickamauga Creek. The actual battle was a confused melee in which each army went into action piecemeal.
The game emphasizes the command control problems that gave this battle character.
It uses a unique planning points accumulation system combined with a chit-drawing command mechanism to simulate the fact that some of the best and some of the worst Generals of the entire Civil War fought at Chickamauga.
