Monday morning gamers: Battle of Fraysers Farm Conclusion



   Monday we concluded the Battle of Fraysers Farm with a V
ictory for the Union.   The game started with the rebels having 28 stands  'Hors de combat"versus about 14 for the Union but that didnt deter the Gray backs at all with the flanks pressing there attacks with vigor. The Union right looked in a precarious position as the confederate pressed home after overrunning a Union battery and defeating a supporting brigade. But the union came back and after a grueling melee that lasted a total of 4 rounds the Southern attack was broken as the grey units were now failing the maneuver checks after reaching there heavy and greater casualty limit .

  1. Well done to Billy Yank on this occasion Mark. Four rounds of melee is a pretty intense engagement!
