Gettysburg Chronicles, Part 13, Attack of the 2nd Wisconsin (1 Viewer)

[Terp152]

General Reynolds orders the Iron Brigade to attack and stop the Confederate advance July 1st 1863. The 2nd Wisconsin charges thru Herbst Woods.



Brigadier James Archer's 7th & 14th Tennessee Reg'ts open a deadly fire that abruptly halts the Wisconsin men.

 

[Terp152]

The Badgers lose up to 30% of their strength in a few moments under a withering fire.


The Wisconsin Regiment exchanges fire with Archer’s men while waiting for the rest of the brigade to join them.

I have to add my comments here too, Chris. You did an outstanding job as everyone has said.

Your work on the scenics is exceptional. The entire layout is well-done and lends itself perfectly to your story.

Thanks for sharing!

Chris: Nice job. Good use of scenics with the figurines. Makes them come alive. You previously did a terrific depiction of Federal artillery. Now you are due for a cavalry scene if Ken can deliver some pertinent inventory over the next few quarters.

Many thanks Jeff. Looking fwd to those promised cavalry figs and limbers. Would open a whole range of possibilities. :smile2: Chris

Wow, what a great display Chris! Love the "woods and field," as both are very real looking. The WB Iron Brigade figures are terrific also, and blend right in. Hey, I gotta stick my head in here more often. I'm missing out on some great stuff.
