Included in these compilation are the original titles that gave the Battleground battle system the fame that has endured over years and years of play. Gamers can refight famous battles like Shiloh, Antietam, Bull Run, and Gettysburg or Waterloo, Borodino, Ligny and Quatre Bras with the fantastic realism and intuitive interface fans of John Tiller’s gaming systems have come to rely on. These comprehensive collections offer long-lasting play with many variant historical and what-if scenarios as well as smaller related battles.
