In this variant I wanted to capture three things that in my opinion represent ACW fighting well. There are of course other views, but these are fairly standard: At the onset there was a mish-mash of different weapons that evolved during the war. Later on the rifled musket became dominant. The Union tended to have better muskets. Cavalry could fight dismounted. Charges were less frequent. Confederate cavalry was better until the balance changed later in the war. Lurkers should be given a more skirmishing role (they can shoot). I use some deployment rules that avoid the effect of skirmishers “teleporting” behind enemy lines and popping up in a forest or BUA. Ambushes are still possible but risky. DOWNLOAD HERE
