This streamlined design means that within minutes of starting, you are already maneuvering your units and planning firing lines, giving the game an approachable feel even for players unfamiliar with the era. The structure of each scenario is straightforward: you take command of either Union or Confederate forces and attempt to secure victory across battlefields representing events such as the Battle of the Crater, Cold Harbor, and other engagements surrounding Petersburg.

fun little game, the rebs kinda cheat getting resupplied/ only the kill the general mode is truly playable
