Why thank you Harry, I appreciate the compliment. I suppose it just comes down to practice makes perfect, along with the fact that Steph provided us all with the initial designs for the new infantry styles.
Speaking of which, I'd still love to make up the units Steph however I've been having trouble figuring out exactly which regiments exactly are going to be representing which Corps and Division, the exact regiment I mean. Once I straighten that out it will be no problem at all getting the rest of the units done.

II Corps, 1st Division - New York Infantry
II Corps, 2st Division - Massachusetts Infantry
II Corps, 3rd Division - New York Infantry
III Corps, 1st Division - Pennsylvania Infantry
III Corps, 2nd Division - New Jersey Infantry
V Corps, 1st Division - Massachusetts Infantry
V Corps, 2nd Division - Union Regular Infantry
V Corps, 3rd Division - Pennsylvania Reserves
VI Corps, 1st Division - New Jersey Infantry
VI Corps, 2nd Division - Vermont Infantry
VI Corps, 3rd Division - Pennsylvania Infantry
XI Corps, 1st Division - Ohio Infantry
XI Corps, 2nd Division - New York Infantry
XI Corps, 3rd Division - New York Infantry
XII Corps, 1st Division - New York Infantry
XII Corps, 2nd Division - New York Infantry
I´d also need some Union & Confederate Shaprshooters ...

Steph: I most certainly would love to help out. My question however is this, do you know exactly what regiments were in which Corps and Divisions? For example in the case of the "XII Corps, 2nd Division - New York Infantry" which exact regiment should I use? There were many New York regiments to choose from in this case and I want to be sure I get the correct one.
Curt: I will amend the backpacks and the infantrymen's trousers appropriately.

Also Steph I took a crack at a new style for infantry holding they're rifles upright and at an angle. I used the 17th and the 1st Virginia as an example.

The Gettysburg game has all the units listed by number and regiment, as well as their commanding officers.
Just load up the historical scenarios and take notes.
For example, Meredith's brigade consisted of;
2 Wisconsin
6 Wisconsin
7 Wisconsin
24 Michigan
19 Indiana

Man, it almost makes me wish I'd bought Sid Meir's Gettysburg when I saw it on the used shelve a year or so ago. In any case Steph using that link you provided to the units that participated in the Battle of Gettysburg it shouldn't be that hard to come up with those units you requested.
Just out of curiosity Steph, how many turns will this scenario last?

Well if I should ever see it again beingofone I will definatley pick up a copy. In any case, I have here the first half of your order for the Army of the Potomac Steph. I used my own discresion in decinding which regiment represented the state you designated for each division, but I tried to base my decision on numerical representation on the battlefield when possible. I tried to use a mix of the two rifle positions, upright and straight ahead as you requested as well.
If you have any questions or comments on the units feel free to let me have them and I'd be glad to accomidate ya! If these are to your liking then expect the second half of the order in the next couple of days.

quote:
* How big was the part of the cavalry in that battle? Do I really need to represent it? |
The morning of the first day Bufords cav division skirmished with Heth`s division for well over two hours to deny the pike.
No major cav engagement on the second day.
Stuart tried to flank the Federal army on the third day and there was an almost exclusive cav engagement to the East, I think it might be off your map but the size of the forces were substantial. IICR each side had about 5 - 7 thousand.
Also one of the very few cav charges was on the third day by Kilpatrick.
And yup the cav almost always except Kilpatrick at Gettysburg, dismounted.
Hope this helps

I'll take a crack at the commanding officer's Steph, but in the mean time I cooked up this little alternate New Jersian to the VI Corps, 1st Division graphic I had earlier provided. I'm not all that happy with how the 3rd New Jersey turned out in that case, if you agree then maybe this solider from the 1st New Jersey would make a good substitution.

Well I'm affraid I can't offer anything in regards to the cavalry contribution to the fighting Steph, however I can offer the first four Union Generals you requested. Once again I used Gareth's units as a base, they were then modified for height, a pistol in place of a sword and of course the cold weather cape.

Why thank you Curt, though I have to admit I "borrowed" the cape graphics off the units in your Bitterfronst ToT unitset. To be honest I think its what makes the units look all the more commanding. Come to think about it.... what ever happened to capes? I say its high time we bring back the cape!!!
