Union Rout! Lee Lays Seige To Washington After Capturing Baltimore! Union amry Of The Potomac Destroyed!

These are a few of the headlines that might be in the papers if Lee had won the Battle of Gettysburg. After you play the scenarios in Enduring Valor:Gettysburg In Miniature, these might be the headlines in the papers if the Union is defeated.

Enduring Valor:Gettysburg in Miniature Volume 1 has 13 scenarios in it. They are the militia battle 3.5 miles north of Gettysburg, 8 scenarios for the first day of battle, and 4 scenarios for the second day of battle. It is packed with professionally done order of battles, maps, battle notes, pictures, background, and more.

It's written by my good friend and American Civil War history enthusiast, Scott Mingus. He has spent years reading books, walking the battlefields, and playtesting the scenarios. I was fortunate enough to have been brought into the hobby when Scott happened to be playtesting the Herr's Ridge scenario. The price is $40, but the book is worth its weight in gold. excellent book of scenarios, American Civil War history, and (though its not intended for this purpose) battlefield guide.

Highly recommended!
