HPS Campaign Chickamauga
Posted: Fri Jun 01, 2007 1:30 am
Look what I found while browsing the NWS Online Combat Gaming Store under the HPS Civil War Battles section:
"In the American Civil War, Chickamauga Creek became known as the “River of Blood.” It was at Chickamauga that Confederate General Braxton Bragg launched his counteroffensive to retake the vital rail junction city of Chattanooga from Union General Rosecrans. And it was at Chickamauga that the Confederacy had one of its last chances to win the American Civil War. Among other things, it was here that General George Thomas won the nickname “Rock of Chickamauga” for this valiant stand.
HPS’s Campaign Chickamauga simulates the entire campaign in Kentucky, Tennessee and northern George in 1862-63. In this campaign, both sides took the offensive, giving both players an opportunity to attack and defend. And the campaign includes just about every type of American Civil War combat: maneuver, siege and decisive battles.
