In their Quiet Fields II
A simulation of the Sept. 17, 1862 battle near Sharpsburg that pits a numerically smaller Confederate force against a larger Union army. Players command brigade- and battalion-scale units on a hex map where each turn represents 30 minutes and each hex equals 200 yards. The game uses an advanced command system and operational-level rules that emphasize command delays, maneuver, and concentrated attacks. Players activate brigades, position infantry, cavalry, and artillery, and resolve combat with dice-driven outcomes across scenarios ranging from short engagements to extended campaign play. Components include a large map, two counter sheets, rulebooks, and dice; it supports two players and solitaire play.
