WinSPCW Scenario Testing - Antietam, morning, September 17, 1862

[mkr8683]

I've decided to pull Meade's division from the cornfield and let the rebels come at me for a change. The losses have been too great - Christian's Brigade (2nd/2nd/First Corps AoP) has been almost entirely destroyed.

Doubleday on the left has to move now - the constant trading of volleys has severely reduced his ammunition, and Jackson has sent Jones's Brigade against him. I send Doubleday's line out to meet Jones, though Early is still advancing from the West. However, First Corps artillery has forced him to a halt. If he continues to be a problem, I may have to assign a brigade of Doubleday's to help, which will be dicey given Jones's position in the trees.
