Did Missionary Ridge years ago at brigade level. The game played out much like the actual battle, though the Union suffered more casualties then they did historically. They still drove Bragg from the position for the victory. I've currently been working on a scenario to do Lookout Mountain at the regimental level, the goal to create a nice terrain board and try to make competitive victory possible for the confederates.

I've played several different scenarios from the campaign. I designed a RFF scenario for the last battle of the campaign, Ringgold Gap, and have run it a few times. It's very hard for the Union to get a victory in that battle. Bill Moreno designed scenarios for the entire campaign, and has run them at various Cons. I played in the Lookout Mountain game, and it is outstanding, especially on Bill's custom terrain boards. |

Thanks Mike, my 10mm line of western theatre figures, Cracker Line Minis, were named after the supply line into Chattanooga. I originally designed the line specifcally around the campaign. Here are a few shots of the various boards for the campaign. The only one for which I do not have a shot is Wauhatchie.
