Confederate Notes

1. Starting at the times listed, Confederate troops enter the board in the following manner at the Confederate Entry Zone. Any command figure will arrive on the turn listed. For each unit under his command, roll a D6. If the result is a 1 or 2, the unit enters on that turn. If the unit does not enter, roll again on the following turn, with a roll of 1 to 4 indicating success. If the unit does not arrive on the second turn, it will automatically arrive on the following turn. Units may enter in any order.

2. Depending upon the source, General Sibley was either ill or under the influence. Roll a D6 for him each turn, on a 1-3 he acts as normal, on a 4-5 he has no effect, and on a 6 he is removed from play. Colonel Tom Green is next in command of the Brigade, however he can only give a +1 bonus to any unit other than the 5th Texas. Captain Teel may give his bonus to any artillery unit as well as his own battery.

3. The Confederate Army is considered as determined, so it will stop attacking at 50% losses, and retreat at 70% losses. The point value of Confederate forces is as follows:

    Brigadier General Sibley 2 points
    Colonel Tom Green 2 points
    All other officers 1 point
    each battalion 2 points
    each gun section 1 point
