All the scenery has been “slided” up North to have more room for the second day.
Still under construction (thought it would be quicker!)…
Union troops concentrate in Cemetery Ridge…
Longstreet has not arrived yet… no news of Stuart.
Union troops will arrive and deploy during the night (and entrench!)
Enjoy.

It has been a victory for the Confederacy… but a confused one because at brigade level there was much mismanagement and uncoordination… also at divisional level if you ask me…
Lee arrives in the field… confers with Ewell and A.P.Hill but decides to wait for Longstreet…
On the Union side, the most difficult of manoeuvres is succesful… retreat under pressure of a bigger Army… and reorganization on the high ground.
JEB Stuart still away and Lee in the dark.

The solo wargame (or reenacment as I prefer to call them) is going on quite historically.
Summing up, Lee does not want a general engagement without Longstreet which is the farthest of the action.
Barlow’s Division has got a piece of high ground on the extreme Union right flank but his position is “in the air”… with lots of space empty behind him… and he is under heavy pressure.
The Union center is holding up before uncoordinated attacks.
Enjoy!

Buford is fighting a delaying action under heavy pressure… Reynolds has been shot by a Reb sharpshooter (leading from the front).
XI Corps is going through Gettysburg.
Ist Union Corps is going to relieve Buford’s Cavalry.
Rodes (from Ewells Corps has arrived to the North of town)
Penders is in a traffic jam behind Heth.
The Union secures the high ground on Cemetery Hill. The Second brigade from XI Corps is posted there.
Quite panoramic perspective.
Enjoy!

Here we go!
I know it is not very quick wargaming at all. BUT I like them quite historical (times of arrival etc).
It is impossible to detail ALL te dice throws and you will excuse me for not detailing them!
Enjoy!
