The Union Attack Falters

Only an hour to continue the game today. However what was expected to be a drive forward by the Union army seems to have deteriorated into an effort to keep the South from launching a devastating counter attack

Confederate divison forming up

One gun damaged all three silenced. The other battery came off worse with one gun destroyed, one damaged and another silenced. Then to cap it all they were short of ammunition having had no real impact on the South's guns!

Union indanty move in to screen the guns so that they can redeploy in a less exposed position.

Unioin reinforcments begin to arrive. Museum Miniatures Garibaldi Guard with Minifig command party.

Also the Lafayette Guard.

The New York Zouaves attempt to storm the wood on the right flank held by dismounted cavalry. This is to be yet another failure!

 A desperate attack by one of the Wisconsin regiments is to fair no better.

Things are not looking good for the Union and the Generals will need to confer before the game continues tomorrow.
