It’s sort of hard to tell from just two wooden structures, and what appears to be a crossroad that is slightly hidden by the elevated terrain.

I hope it is Chickamuanga. For anyone that is not familiar with it, it is a great battle. A rare one where the rebs outnumbered the Yanks. Three days of battle. With two of those days heavily engaged. A battlefield that is 80% +/- trees. A Union brigade with repeater rifles.

Lots of room for making variants, but not needed as it was described as a battle fought between just groups of soldiers. A true battle between the wills of the individual soldiers.

It is enormous for its results. The South won, but was terribly bloodied. Union survived by a hair to fight another day. The stage was being set for the final year of the war.

If it is Chickamuanga it must have been one of the most frustrating and rewarding battles to test. Maybe, this would be the same for Shilo.

I think it is Chancellorsville, along the Plank Road specifically... just a guess :oþ

Chickamauga would be fantastic, though!

This! It makes the most sense business wise. After Gettysburg and Antietam, Chancellorsville is probably the most famous battle given the daring flank attack and the demise of Jackson. It also has a ton of what if possibilities to.
