Gettysburg 1863 (Worthington) - Unboxing & Overview

GETTYSBURG 1863 uses the largest mounted game board Worthington/Old School Wargames has ever made. The reason this is the largest game board we ever created is because we wanted to use large thick counters with large hexes- 3/4" thick counters with large hexes - which at this scale creates the need for a large game board.
Scale: Each hex equals 200-220 yds per hex with 35' - 40' elevation changes. Each strength point equals 100 men per strength point or 1 to 3 cannons per strength point. Each turn equals 1 hour.
GETTYSBURG 1863 is Volume IV in the Old School Wargames Civil War Brigade Battle series. Gamers get to refight the historic and pivotal battle of Gettysburg in 1863 using a large mounted map board, large pieces, and a streamlined set of series rules that is just 8 -12 pages long. The Battle Booklet will give you historical details, design, notes and 6 scenarios:
July 1 - Meeting Engagement
July 1 - Take That Hill (Can Ewell take Culp's Hill?) (one map)
July 2 - The Fight for the Flanks
July 2 - The Fight for Little Round Top (one map)
July 3 - Lee's Folly
July 1 - July 4 (the full battle with an optional July 4th day for gamers)
The single day scenarios should take between 1 to 3 hours to play with the full battle taking 6 - 10 hours to play.
Special rules for early or late arrival of reinforcements, follow up attacks, new terrain rules for multi level hex changes, a new rout rule, and more!
Gettysburg 1863 is easily playable by teams of 3 or more with each player taking command of a corps in either the Union or Confederate armies.

"Oh, why must I be so tormented?" Great unboxing loved the video

Definitely like the system. It hits the "Goldie Locks Zone" for playability that makes the games in the system super accessible.

Love this system! It was my introduction to hex and counter games and it's right at my speed. Keeps things nice and simple while still giving you "enough."

[@charleslatora5750]
