Carthage, Mo. July 5, 1861.
While advancing on Boonville, US General Lyon sent forces to southwestern Missouri to cut off the Missouri State Guard retreat.
On July 5, a column of Federals under US Colonel F. Sigel approached Carthage. To stop them, Governor C.F. Jackson established a line of battle about six miles north of Carthage.
One USA and one CSA officer are needed to play this scenario.
