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.

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!

On of the advantages of a permanent table and wargaming solo (sometimes I call it reenacment) is the use of TIME!
Some people like my layout some don’t.
No matter what it is really functional.

Finally there!
Today I build up the scenario for the first day of Gettysburg (1st July).
No troops in it yet.
Hope you like it. Troops from both sides are converging on it!
Enjoy!

Made some pics today showing variants or different ways to base minis in a standard 60x30mm stand.
All minis are 6mm Baccus and the buildings are all Leven.
After building a collection of brigades in an orthodox way (meaning two lines of 12 minis and 4 skirmishers forward… as recommended on the most popular rules). I started to think that what really mattered was the Brigade stand per se. So it existed leeway to the way you could glue or organize the minis on the stand to add aesthetic effects and variety.
Here is some of the results. I used the Army of Northern Virginia for the pics but the Army of the Potomac has the same treatment in my collection.
Hope you enjoy.
