Description

Wilson's Creek is a grand tactical, regimental-level simulation of the Civil War battle fought on 10 August 1861, five miles southwest of Springfield, Missouri. The game simulates the surprise Union attack (led by Brigadier General Nathaniel Lyon) upon an allied force of Confederate regulars led by Brigadier General Benjamin McCulloch, and Missouri State Guards led by Major General Sterling Price. The Battle of Wilson's Creek was one of the pivotal factors that kept Missouri in the Union.
