Two days at Gettysburg

This weekend was spent with a great bunch of guys pushing somewhere in the vicinity of 4000 figures around our battlefield of Gettysburg.

This post will largely cover my area on the table with a few shots of the action in other areas.
I have posted more photos of the whole table on the Harper's Weekly Blog.


I was General Lafayette McLaws and right from the start we were in action.

After two failed attempts McLaws clears the Peach Orchard.

The Union retook Devil's Den but McLaws took it back again.
