SMALL DEADLY SPACE: An American Civil War Battle Manual 2nd Edition
Edition 2.0. ACW rule set focuses on the psychological effect of battle through unit cohesion tracked via hidden 'dashboard.' Morale numbers and Cohesion colors on the dashboard fall with combat defeats and fatigue, and rise with Division Staff Officers' rallies.

Close Actions are resolved by the use of several die rolls over the course of fighting the Close Action. Attackers test morale to see if they go in or if they instead settle for a protracted firefight. Defenders then test morale to determine the intensity of their defensive fire. The players complete the Close Action by rolling to see if one side can secure a 2 to 1 result or better to defeat the foe. Leadership plays an important role, as if the attack looks like it will bog down into a firefight, the attackers may send a Staff Officer into the fray to re-roll the Close Action dice again. This may be repeated as long as there are available Staff and a result of less than 2 to 1 is not achieved. Once that 2 to 1 result is obtained, the Close Action is decided and play is moved onto the next one. At the end of the turn every unit that was in combat tests current morale to see if troop stands are removed from play.

Also includes scenario labels for Day 2 Battle of Gettysburg.1 vol, 174 pgs 2023 US, ON MILITARY MATTERS
