ACW campaign map moves

As the battle progresses into the afternoon of 24th June 1863. Union forces have been able to capture the railway bridge in morning, but exhausted Rawlin's and Cope's divisions in doing so. In an aggressive move Confederate forces have swung Lyons' division across the Redmond River to threaten the Union's left flank.

Orders were written by both generals. In this solo campaign I am taking the Union side and will write one set of orders for them and two sets for their opposing Confederate general. then let the dice decide which set of Confederate orders are actioned.

Union orders:

1. Smith's division to march north and cross the bridge
2. Rawlin's division to hold
3. Brown's division hold and provide support (reserves) to both Cope and Rawlin
4. Cope's division to hold

Confederate orders to be actioned on a 1, 2 or 3:

1. Greg's division to cross the bridge moving south east
2. Tanner's division to advance east
3. Lyons' division to follow the river north
4. Cooper's division to hold

Confederate orders to be actioned on a 4, 5 or 6:

1. Greg's division to cross the bridge moving south east
2. Tanner's division to hold
3. Lyons' division to follow the river north
4. Cooper's division to move north

The dice roll was a 3 so the first set of Confederate orders were actioned. Union forces won the dice-off to make their first move, there on after each force taking turns to action one of their orders in the sequence they were written. When moving a division a D3 is rolled to determine how many squares they can move (no diagonal moves allowed).

Moving first Smith's Union division managed to get the jump on Greg's division. While Tanner's division are advancing on Cope's weakened division and Lyons pushed very slowly north.

This weekend I will hopefully be playing two games over map coordinates E1 and E3.
