Seven Pines American Civil War battle
in 10mm, using Fire & Fury
The initial deployment - Hills division in the foreground
Garlands troops prepare to cross the "abatis" defending the Union front lines.
Nagles Brigade supported by artillery prepare to face the onslaught
Wessles marshals his troops behind the first set of defences
Abercrombie, Deven & Peck defend the 7 Pines crossroad
Hills division prepare to cross the stream and head out
And with a Paintshop Pro fiddle around on the background....
The Confederate attack gathers pace
Rodes outflanks the Union earthworks
The UNion troops are caught in the open as they start to fall back
The Union advance guard braces for impact
The main defensive line waits apprehensively
The Confederates (led by Rains brigade) start to push the defenders back
The full attack under Longstreet starts to form a traffic jam in the open ground
Just like the pictures in the book!
Dana's Brigade under Sumner joins the battle
Palmers forces hang on valiantly against an attack by Law & Rains
The main assault is checked!
