American Civil War battle game

Just started getting into painting civil war minatures which I plan to play using warlord games rules black powder . But for this game my friend hosted a game using his own we'll written rules for the period . We used mostly his minatures which were beautifully painted and some of mine which were not so well painted :) . We refought the battle of the wilderness on the aniversy of the actual battle . May 5th . Dice down at the time the actual battle kicked off . The battle started off in a large field with a road up the middle and two large thick forest on both sides . The union started with two regiments alone waiting for the union re enforcements to come . Not fast enough an entire two confederate brigades began to cross the field to destroy the two union regiments . I was playing the Rebs for this battle . My buddy don lead the union . My confederat line payed into the union forces . More union re enforcements arrived to be thrust rite into the fight . My big break came when I was able to lean on the left flank and forced his regiment to route . Thus began the flank roll up . My first brigade began to route but was refreshed by a whole new brigade fresh for a fight . We called it in the end . The game some what followed what historically happened . The union mis calculated the numbers of the confederat army and piece mealed into the rebel army . One big difference was I advanced the confederates up the middle where there real life counter parts held and just fired on arriving union forces . Great game and rules . Dons minatures were excellent . Great times . Enjoy the pics
