Shiloh Solo

I decided to break out the 6mm armies for a solo re-fight of Shiloh. It's been a while since these armies have seen any action and Shiloh is a battle I've never tried before and always thought would lend itself well to a wargame.


I'll be playing the game longways up my 6' x 4' table and the Rebs will be hard pushed to make it to Pittsburg Landing by the end of turn 25 to achieve victory but then I don't want to make it too easy for them!

Sherman's division at Shiloh Church awaiting the Rebel onslaught.

The Union divisions will begin the game on HOLD orders and no offensive action can be taken until Grant arrives on the field at 8.30 am. The local division commanders can try and withdraw but achieving this will be subject to the usual die rolls.

The Peach Orchard and Sunken Lane. The Sunken Lane will count as
entrenchments which will make it difficult to carry by assault.

I hope to start playing the game in the next week or so and will grab some time to play the odd turn when I can.
