Scourge of War: Brandy Station

Product Info

 

Scourge of War: Brandy Station is the latest expansion for Scourge of War: Gettysburg, touted as the definitive American Civil War tactical strategy game.  Scourge of War: Brandy Station is a must-have for all American Civil War wargamers.  It offers ten historical single player scenarios set in the midst of the savage cavalry action that opened the Gettysburg campaign. 

After the Battle of Chancellorsville, Lee's Army of Northern Virginia was camped near Brandy Station, Virginia, preparing for their invasion of the North. The Confederate cavalry under Maj. Gen. JEB Stuart was to screen their northward movement with a cavalry raid.  Union commander Maj. Gen. Joe Hooker intended to blunt this raid with an attack by his own cavalry under Maj. Gen. Alfred Pleasonton, which culminated in the largest cavalry battle ever fought on North American soil.  

Historically the battle ended in a stalemate, but can you change history and use Stuart's cavalry to crush the Union cavalry?  Or take command of Pleasonton's large mixed force of infantry and cavalry to send Stuart packing to Richmond?  

Please note: Scourge of War: Brandy Station is an expansion and requires Scourge of War: Gettysburg  to play.

Review at The Strategy Wargamer
" A little less epic in scope than previous games, but that is due to it being a smaller battle, compared to Gettysburg or Antietam, which were massive battles. But Matrix Games and NorbsoftDev set a really good deal for this game".

Review at Kriegsimulation
"The Scourge of War game engine is without any reservation the most compelling, playable and realistic tactical representation of the American Civil War battlefield. You owe yourself to try it".
