Gettysburg by Jeff Hendrickson

Re-fight the bloodiest battle ever fought on North American soil. You command either the Army of Northern Virginia, or the Army of the Potomac! Will your tactics prevail? Following his stunning victory at the Battle of Chancellorsville, General Robert E. Lee decided to attempt a second invasion of the North. He felt such a move would disrupt the Union Armys plans for the summer campaign, would allow his army to live off the rich farms of Pennsylvania, and would aid in reducing pressure on the Confederate garrison at Vicksburg, Mississippi. In the wake of Lt. Gen. Thomas "Stonewall" Jacksons death, Lee reorganized his army into three corps commanded by Lt. Gen. James Longstreet, Lt. Gen. Richard Ewell, and Lt. Gen. A.P. Hill. On June 3, 1863, Lee quietly began moving his forces away from Fredericksburg, Virginia. Fight the Battle of Gettysburg as Robert E. Lee commanding the Army of Northern Virginia, or as George G. Meade commanding the Army of the Potomac in an ultra-realistic, historically accurate real time strategy game. Gettysburg includes a real GIS capability map including terrain data.
