(W stands for Weather data is used) On the 6th of April, 1865, a large part of General Lee's army was confronted by Grant's pursuing army, at Sailor's Creek. This scenario depicts the battle fought by General Ewell's two divisions of Kershaw and GWC Lee, against General Wright's VI Corps at the spot known as Hillsman Farm. With no artillery to counter the Union artillery bombardment, Ewell held off a superior number of Union troops for several hours. Now is your chance to seal the fate of the Confederacy, for good or ill. Take Charge! NOTE: Due to heavy rains, Little Sailor's Creek has largely been turned into a marsh area.
