I won the battle with 5300 losses to their 17000. Thank you all for the help

I tried to flank them from the side and it worked for a litte bit but eventually led to nothing but me rushing back to the woods to defend the objective. And I got slaughtered there too. They just have so many numbers. 58000 on the field compared to my one corp of 15,779 inf 900 artiller 1487 Calvary it won't let my insert a picture

I'm having so much difficulty beating this battle without attrocious losses. Day 2 just seems impossible, I'm outnumbered 2 to 1 before the reinforcements and the union just throws their bodies into bayonets until they eventually push through. Any tips??

Whenever I did Gettysburg day 2 I took the hills with no problem I just couldn't hold them, the causality ratio had to be over 1:4 yet they just flooded me with troops and I lost the battle

I just gotta say how realistic this feels, I've been playing this game for a while and just started another confederacy campaign. It always makes me feel awful sending my my green corps into a mission alone, or having them have to hold a flank all by themselves in major battles, it hurts to see the lines of bodies in the grown but how oh so proud it makes me to see just as many still standing tall. It always pains me to ever have to sacrifice men for the greater good and I always play epic music during their charge or valiant stands, and then sad music to honor them. This game is amazing

The thing is they did have much representation, everybody received those taxes, yet it was the south who went against their brothers and constitution. Are you trying to justify them?

While I agree that most confederate soldiers didn't have slaves (in above post) they were fighting against their government, their constitution. The same constitution that men gave their lives for. The same one that exist today that we all know and love. I am not saying the confederate troops didn't sacrifice anything and I do think we should teach our youth about the conflict, but never praise them, praise their spirit but not their cause.

I would definitely fight for the Union. I love America with all my heart and in my opinion I think the south had no (actual) justification for trying to secede. Their "justification" was "states rights" which basically meant I want to own another human being that does all the work for me and receives no benefit. Now I do understand why they wanted to secede, it's how they profited, and I do know most confederate soldiers didn't own slaves, but I just could not support succession.

I'm all for remembering our history but what I don't like is many southerners praising the CSA or thinking their actions were justified. Monuments are meant for praising someone. We should teach the civil war in the classroom not praise men who went against their own country, fought their own brothers for not a single good reason. But yes happy Fourth

I tried this but even after sprinting my units to exhaustion I never have the time to take cemetery hill

I know I need to finish Gettysburg as the CSA on day one due to my army being outnumbered vastly but I can't seem to even get past the first skirmishers with taking heavy losses. Any tips?

The results

Any tips going into Chancellorsville as the CSA? Btw I only have around 35K troops but they're all elites. I can trust every one of them to do any task I give them.

I just finished my usual workout routine and I thought to myself how in shape were the men on both sides of the civil war? I don't know much about the civil war to be honest just the basics

Alright thanks for the idea. And for your service.
