Union needs to be aggressive and the CSA quick on their toes in this one.

The Union player has a massive force at their disposal but much of it arrives late. Going in piecemeal can result in repeated repulses, but waiting and going in with weight can cause issues with time.

Really 4 different battles. the Union forces arrive slowly and far away. CSA troops due too but slightly closer with huge defensive advantage, height, woods, stone walls
