GLORY 1861: Raising and Leading a Regiment to Glory

1-226560

Raise an American Civil War infantry regiment and lead your men into battle using fewer than 50 figures.

The rules allow you to create an historical regiment with named commanders, company officers, and company names. Train them in the arts of war and then lead them into the battlefield to seek glory, fame, and immortality.

This approach melds character creation from roleplaying, seamless game play and robust and well-tested gaming mechanics. You have dozens of regiment options and as you build your force. At each stage, you must decide how to train the men and how to use their officers and company commanders to accomplish their objectives. A random encounter and objectives system gives you hundreds of possible scenario options. You can also play the opening moves at Bull Run in 1861 or the whole Western Virginia mini-campaign. You can use your own regiment or one of the pick-up-and play regiments. Bonus cards to enhance game play are included, along with table set-up maps and ready reference sheets.
