Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

Though I've yielded immediate command of the cornfield to the rebels, they're close enough that Meade's artillery can hit them hard. His two remaining batteries, by virtue of their own unsupported...

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

Though Doubleday has mostly halted Jones, Early continues to advance from the west, but First Corps artillery needs to cease firing for a turn to replenish their ammunition.

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

I've decided to pull Meade's division from the cornfield and let the rebels come at me for a change. The losses have been too great - Christian's Brigade (2nd/2nd/First Corps AoP) has been almost...

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

It continues to be a slugfest in the cornfield, and the Pennsylvania Reserves continue to check Ewell along the Mumma Road. To the west, the line has largely stabilized and I make plans to hit...

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

I estimate that the brigades of Phelps, Gibbon, and Patrick have easily lost half their numbers. In an earlier post, I confused Hoffman's brigade with one of Meade's detached brigades. Regardless,...

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

A savage battle began, with considerable melee action with rifle butts and bayonets due to short visibility in the corn. Officers rode about cursing and yelling orders no one could hear in the noise....

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

The fight in the cornfield continues to be a mess, but I've been able to push forward and take two objective flags. True to history, the 12th Massachusetts Volunteers suffered terribly at the hands...

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

The 2nd US Sharpshooters, the riflemen in green uniforms, are doing damage to the rebs with their Sharps rifles.

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

Doubleday has stabilized his line, and with Early's advance checked by Meade's reserve brigade, I can redirect my artillery against the West Woods. A brisk exchange of musketry is still going on,...

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

Doubleday's fight is not going very well. Early's Brigade approaches from the west against Doubleday's right flank, but three of my batteries on the Hagerstown Pike check Early. I also send the...

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

Still under heavy rebel artillery fire, I have the Pennsylvania Reserves hunker down at the edge of the East Woods, both to avoid drawing fire and to help blunt Ewell's attack. I also dispatch...

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

Now I have a problem, with Ewell's division moving up Mumma Lane to hit Ricketts's left flank.

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

The next phase of battle is the advance of Doubleday's 1st Division to the West Woods, his line straddling the Hagerstown Pike. Colonel Phelps's 1st Brigade of New Yorkers takes heavy fire from...

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

I begin with the cornfield. General Ricketts sends his 2nd Division against Miller's Cornfield, and a terrible volley of shot and shell from rebel artillery, concentrated around the Dunker Church,...

Re: WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

The focus of this scenario is the action at the West Woods and Miller's Cornfield, which was the scene of intense, horrific fighting.

"..the most deadly fire of the war. Rifles are shot to pieces...

WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

I'm writing a scenario of the battle of Antietam for my American Civil War mod. The orbats for both sides are complete, and I'm dividing the battle into phases. I'll also be writing a copy of each...
