Now that you reminded me of this excellent game, I will have to go back and revisit it ASAP.
Excellent vid, love your commentaries. :)

Your commentary on these battles was so good, that I went and bought the game. I still love it and your videos, though you are a whole lot better than I am.

btw, I think you lost your artillery up on the hill ... I noticed on the mini map that 2 red dots were being pushed back by 6 blue ones.

If you would like to know more about this battle then you should read Landscape Turned Red by Stephen W. Sears. Great book about the battle.

Loved the Battle! But Jackson didn’t die until 1863 at Chancellorsville

Walker was commanding Jubal Early's Brigade (Early was in command of Ewell's Division, after Ewell was wounded at 2nd Manassas). He'd later be promoted to BG and moved to take command of the Stonewall Brigade at Gettysburg, until he was captured in the initial Mule shoe attack at Spotslyvannia in 1864 ( in which most of Jackson's Old Division was captured; it would be consolidated with Gordon's Division); he'd be exchanged, returned to Richmond and commanded a brigade of reserves.
J.R. Jones commanded Jackson's Old Division (It's previous commander, William Taliaferro's, was wounded at 2nd Manassas); he too would be wounded, and command would pass to BG William Starke (commander of the 1st Louisiana Brigade, which included Coppen's Battalion, Louisiana Tigers); he would be killed trying to hold Dunker Church with his depleted command.
