Description

Refight the American Civil War campaigns in Virginia with the Blue & Gray Campaign Series of games. With under eight pages of series rules, and maximum of 2 pages of campaign specific rules you will be up and playing in under 30 minutes and finishing campaigns in 2 hours or less. Few pieces on the board allow for shorter turns and more player interaction within the game.

Each game focuses on one or two particular campaigns from the war. The maps may be joined to lay out the Civil War in the Eastern Theater with campaigns from 1861 to 1865. Each box game comes with a 22" x 17" sturdy game map, blocks, labels, series rules, campaign specific rules, battle board, and dice. The games are playable in 2 hours or under. Also, all three games boards can be combined for additional campaigns.

Grant's Gamble focuses on the 1864 Overland Campaign from Culpepper to the VA/NC border. As Grant can you drive south destroying Lee's veterans as you capture Richmond and Petersburg? As Lee can you hold Richmond and Petersburg long enough, and inflict enough casualties to make a war-weary Union not to reelect Lincoln and bring independence to the South?
