You might want to consider Wally Simon's Volume 4: Campaign Secrets of Wargame Design contains a Jackson in the Valley campaign, with starting forces, map with 88 'junctions', and the theory behind Wally's 'Glob' movements. They used a variety of rule sets to fight out the battles. Also includes 11 other systems that you could adapt to an ACW campaign. Item 198834. $19. USD |

I've been considering using Columbia Games' Shenandoah Valley game as the basis for a campaign. The map, rules, and game OB are all downloadable from their website: link |
