This game does a great job of recreating the sumo match that this battle turned into with the two armies leaning hard against each other, looking for the slightest advantage, until one of them staggers backwards.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5368677310334370714.post-49935718480955017472013-07-16T19:11:09.469+00:002013-07-16T19:11:09.469+00:00I have played Bull Run but do not own it, so canno...I have played Bull Run but do not own it, so cannot physically compare the two or their fire mechanics. However, the Shiloh game does make a comparison and says that in Bull Run, the artillery represented massed batteries, while in Shiloh, they represent batteries attached to formations. I suppose I would tend to stick with that deliberate distinction, it seems to work fine in the Shiloh game. <br /><br />In the game, firing is actually referred to as artillery fire rather than infantry fire with artillery support and so I think this game has made the fire to be artillery based and assault as infantry based, so I doubt that the mechanics would allow you to bring in extra artillery without you having to dig deeper and tweak more than you may wish to.Normhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05031444717952755557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5368677310334370714.post-24500563812141783312013-07-16T17:54:31.502+00:002013-07-16T17:54:31.502+00:00I understand that the first game in the series had...I understand that the first game in the series had artillery units and that this one doesn't. How does that affect this game? I realize the heavily wooded battlefield limited the use of artillery, but I think it would have been nice to include them. Could you use the artillery rules from the bull run game and make your own counters based upon historical order of battles?megoss1963https://www.blogger.com/profile/18171084620016774218noreply@blogger.com
