The Seven Days Battles
Can you command Confederate or Union forces through the Seven Days Battles outside Richmond in 1862? This hex-and-counter wargame includes eight scenarios covering Beaver Dam Creek, Gaines Mill, Glendale, and Malvern Hill. Players maneuver brigade-sized units, fight for key terrain, and seek to destroy the opposing army. Special rules represent Stonewall Jackson’s delayed activity, while linked scenarios combine two battles across two days. Single-day scenarios take 2–4 hours, and the longer scenarios take 6–8 hours.
