Seven Pines OOB

For the army OOB's I have drawn largely from the Fire & Fury scenario with a few tweaks from reading various accounts of the battle. The numbers in brackets on the OOB's are the starting strength points for each brigade, unusually in this fight the Confederate units are mostly stronger than those of the Union.

Victory Conditions
The Army Demoralisation Level (DEM) is equal to the current number of broken infantry brigades either on table or removed from play.

DEM on day 1
Union – 3
Confederate – 4
If the Confederates do not hold the crossroads at Seven Pines at the end of Day 1 they start Day 2 with +1 DEM

The DEM is reset on Day 2 but the side with the highest DEM score from day 1 starts with a DEM level of 1.

DEM on day 2
Union - 4
Confederate – 5
