FIREBELL IN THE NIGHT: Brigade-Level Miniature Rules for the American Civil War
Tod Kershner's ACW rules developed over several years in conjunction with wargamers, re-enactors and ACW historians. Innovative movement and redeployment system confronts the commander with the challenge of using European-style formations in the difficult North American terrain. Realistic casualty-tracking system creates fog of war and a clean tabletop free of visually intrusive game markers that detract from the dioramic effect. Realistic fatigue-tracking system monitors fighting strengths, putting premium on fresh units from reserves or by resting and reforming front-line units.
Special deck of 50 'crisis cards' interjects drama and uncertainty to the battlefield. The critical effect of supply issues on the battlefield is dealt with cleanly and effectively. Easily implemented command system emphasizes the relationship between divisional commanders and their brigadiers. Includes ratings for every general that fought in the ACW – over 1,000 entries!
