Remember that all factors are interrelated and that your responses could change history. Facts and figures used are based on the actual occurrence. Most battles tend to result as they did in the civil war, but it all depends on you!!

The object of the game is to win as many battles as possible.

Your choices for defensive strategy are:
        (1) artillery attack
        (2) fortification against frontal attack
        (3) fortification against flanking maneuvers
        (4) falling back
Your choices for offensive strategy are:
        (1) artillery attack
