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.

Enjoy!

McPherson’s Ridge and the unfinished railroad cut.
Ist and XIth Corps UNION still out of the table…
