Compass Games Flanks of Gettysburg
Flanks of Gettysburg is a two, two-player games on a company level, simulating the two brigade sized flank attacks on Little Round Top and Culps Hill on July 2, 1863. Each assault is a separate game based on a chit-pull system that can be completed in several hours. Historically the Union bested rebel forces on both flanks because it fed enough reinforcements in to stem the gray tide But that is not to say that the rebels dont stand a chance. They do. Note, the fighting on Culps Hill went well into the night and ended the days fighting.
