📖 About This Game

Lee at Gettysburg : The Battle for Cemetery Ridge (by Mark H. Walker, Artwork by Nicolas Eskubi) simulates the first day of the battle of Gettysburg . The player controls the Confederate and Union formations that fought in the battle (by moving cardboard counters across the map and combating enemy formations). The map includes McPherson’s Ridge, Gettysburg , Cemetery Hill, and the northern section of Cemetery Ridge. Each hex represents an area 250 yards wide. The counters represent brigades (600-700 men), artillery batteries (4-6 guns), and leaders. Each turn represents one hour. This was "published" in the April 2004 issue of Armchair General - the issue contains a key one uses to download a PDF of the game. Re-implemented by: Lee at Gettysburg: The Battle for Cemetery Ridge (Gold Edition)
