Longstreet's Assault: Turns 1 and 2

 I played out the first two turns of my large Regimental Fire and Fury game. On turn one the artillery of both sides blasted away at each other and a host of infantry targets. Robertson's rebel brigade attacked Ward's men around the Devil's Den with limited success.

On turn two, Kershaw was killed by cannister fire as he led his brigade against the Peach Orchard. Benning's men were able to drive back de Trobiand's men, but then suffered from massed artillery fire.

Turn two: Robertson makes progress in driving in Ward's men. Robertson is wounded and will have to sit out the next turn.

Benning's Georgians continue to pressure Birney's flank.

Kershaw's men are within striking distance. The Union artillery has been pretty much silenced by the more numerous rebel guns in this sector.

Two brigades from Barnes's division of II Corp arrive along with a battalion of artillery and quickly move to support the crumbling flank.
