The Game (French & English)

Wargame with die-cut counters : Second Bull run

The second battle of Bull Run is a game for two players that simulates the main battle of the Northern Virginia campaign during the summer of 1862 between General Lee for the south and General Pope for the north. Despite being outnumbered, Lee wins the 3-day combat and takes advantage of his good defensive position before launching a counter attack that disperses Pope’s troops. This simulation primarily uses the rules of the Sécession system developed for Cedar Creek (VV94) and especially Stones River (VV121).

Complexity : 6/10

Playability for solo play : 7/10

Duration : 3 to 4 hours

One turn = 1.5 hours approximately

One counter  = one brigade

VaeVictis Magazines have very nice, small Wargames inside (good BGG ratings) with very good looking counters (see product picts). One thing, that could be, is that the gaming map has some little crinkles, because they use the map as an envelope for the game. 

We printed the English Rules for You (in Colour) and send them together with the Magazine!
