The tournament is based on Lee's retreat from Gettysburg. After regrouping their forces, Lee and Meade look to face off again on the Falling Wates map west of Gettysburg. In these 10 scenarios, the weather has finally cleared and given Lee and Meade a chance to inflict a decisive blow. In attempts to get the upper hand, 9 smaller engagements (Battles 1 - 9 ) will take place around Falling Waters. These 9 battles will determine the setup for the final "BIG TEN" tenth battle. All of the casualties from the first 9 battles, similar to a campaign battle, will carry over into the final fight.
