In fact, if the orchards I have seen are any indication, the column movement cost for infantry ought to be the same as clear terrain. Light woods probably a point extra for debris. From what I have read about the Wilderness, it wa... |

Thanks! I appreciate the contribution.
Cedar Mountain is one of the few Civil War battlefields I haven't visited. |

That has nothing to do with the decisions he made during the battle It has everything to do with his relationship with his corps commanders. You will note that both Ewell and Hill have command ratings of D. That means the best command r... |
