Friday evening four of us gathered for a refight of the Battle of Shiloh using our 6mm figures and the "Volley & Bayonet: Road to Glory" rules. While Shiloh was a bloody two day battle we would be re-fighting it over a single evening and therefore opted to fight only the first day. A few photos and a brief description of the battle can be found here: volleyandbayonet.wordpress.com

I like VnB for mass battles. I actually have a copy of the rules on my dining room table right now.

We did use the OOB form the Volley & Bayonet scenario book "Battles of the American Civil War". I have updated the game report with what very minor modifications, or clarifications, to the scenario we made.
