Status: offline 		10.20am end of CSA turn report, the Federal units retreat from the fort, i send out scouts to check there progress as i move low morale units around and replace with fitter ones before Pickett's brigade reaches the front, while the US retreats i change orders to all brigade not marching to rally to recover lost morale.

I send out again 3 sets of scouts to look for the other side at both the flanks and check on the movement of the units fleeing the fort attack.

Status: offline 		11am again i get a boost of speed with my reinforcements along the Yorktown road, as again i get a divisional boost of speed point to spend and use it there, while more of my men in that area unlock and will be available next turn to also bring in to the fray with Birney's Brigade arriving.

The Slow withdrawal from fighting at the fort gets my units out of harms way and i change there orders to rally while i wait for my next set of reinforcements to help me take the fort, some units either failed to get the message of it wasn't understood so failed to move away from the fort and was kept in harms way a while longer, so i will need to re do there commands again next turn if i wish to keep them in the fight.

Status: offline 		11.20am, Birney's Brigade gets bogged down in the rain and mud on the Yorktown road, there's just too many units using one road now and that is making it really slow going to bring up supplies and reinforcements at anything other than a snails pace atm.

While at summer HQ camp, Hancock's 1st Brigade unlocks and goes off on it's long march to cub creek dam and tries to scout out the right flank and attack the fort from there.

All my units withdrawing at the fort and retreated and placed in to rally mode to recover while they find better ground to hold while the rest of the Brigades are brought up.

Status: offline 		11.40am, while i still retreat and recover my men around the fort, i still progress on my long march of my reinforcements along the long Yorktown road, only Hancock's Brigade makes good progress.

2nd Divisional Artillery goes to support the units at the fort, or at least goes on the march towards it for now, as Peck's 2nd Brigade arrives and also starts in long march to the front.

2 Brigades fail to move when asked, both maybe because of the rain and mud and over worked Yorktown road, either way it again slows down some reinforcements arriving at the front, so again delays the attack on the fort.

Status: offline 		12.20pm, with Brooks Brigade unlocking from summer HQ i send them up the middle road away from summer HQ to probe and scout out any units there if none are found i'll attack the fort from here, elsewhere the reinforcements make slow progress, with the left flank being attacked i pull it back and wait to be reinforced before i go back on to the offensive for now.

With the front being stable for the moment i look at the state of traffic on the Yorktown road and wonder how the log jam will get any better if the rain keeps coming as the mud gets deeper

Status: offline 		12.20pm now i need to rush units to the right flank to counter this threat as it will fold under pressure as there only cav units in this area atm in the redoubts, so only Pickett's men are making the attack as my other brigades change brigade orders back to rally and hold.

The left flank see's some heavy fighting but holds
