Prepositioned Battles

Post by Gen. McClernand »

I've always been interested in this. It's been quite a long time that I've been going into this subject. It's been since Take Command 2nd Manassas that I was wondering how you can make a prepositioned battle. As in, you can position your soldiers and enemy soldiers in a position for the battle. I know, this may be for modders, but how do you do prepositioned battles? I'm not to smart in this type of thing.

Barlow and sspoom are the guys you need to talk to McClernand.

Barlow has a lengthy post at the Shenandoah Club on how to make scenarios. But I think you must first sign up to see it: War Department/Resource Center.

You can also ask RebBugler or LittlePowell. They made the new east and south cavalry field scenarios. They are pretty good at that sort of thing.
I can make this march and I will make Georgia howl.
