* The number in brackets is the leader's STRATEGY RATING (see movement - each turn roll 1D6 plus this and need to score 6 or more to move).
** The units are given in number of men. The morale is as per Fire & Fury and used to determine Fresh, Worn & Spent levels. Note that under Fire & Fury Veteran is the average morale level.
*** EXP means that the unit is led by an Exceptional brigade commander which gives additional command and control and combat benefits. This leader can of course be lost.
WARNING!
If you will be playing this scenario, DO NOT look at the Umpire Rules or Orders of Battle for either side as the capabilities of various leaders and units should not be hidden from both sides! You probably shouldn't read the replay, either, as it will influence your own deployments and uses. You have been warned.
