Stonewall's Sword: The Battle of Cedar Mountain
Two-player chit-pull wargame recreating the Battle of Cedar Mountain, August 9, 1862. One player fields Confederate forces under Stonewall Jackson and the other commands Union troops under Nathaniel Banks. Players win by controlling key map areas and accumulating victory points through enemy unit elimination. Two scenarios offer different lengths and victory conditions. Gameplay uses a blind chit-pull system that dictates activation order and introduces fog, friction, and fortune of war, forcing players to make decisions with incomplete information and shifting opportunities.
