Flanks of Gettysburg: Little Round Top – Culp’s Hill, July 1863

Flanks of Gettysburg is a two, two-player games on a company level, simulating the two brigade sized flank attacks on Little Round Top and Culp’s Hill on July 2, 1863. Each assault is a separate game based on a chit-pull system that can be completed in several hours. Historically the Union bested rebel forces on both flanks because it fed enough reinforcements in to stem the gray tide But that is not to say that the rebels don’t stand a chance. They do.

FOG uses a chit pull system similar to John Poniske’s Ball’ Bluff and Belmont designs. Both games follow similar rules applying unique fire and movement, melee and order assignment. These are simple, rapid playing approaches to complex situations. FOG clocks in at three to three and a half hours per game and provides high solitaire capability.
