He's done it yet again! Only a month after he published DOMINION OF OTTO VON BISMARCK, Steve Parker has published yet another book in the 'Dominion of ...' series. This latest book is aimed at the American Civil War, and is entitled DOMINION OF THE BLUE AND GREY.
It follows the same format as the previous books in the series, so I will not repeat myself other than to state that is has American Civil War-appropriate rule changes. These are:
- Revised rally rules.
- Amended activation rules.
- Rules for generals influencing the battle.
As in previous books, there are scenarios for 24 historical battles. These include a brief background to the battle, relevant army lists, deployment details, and brief account of the actual battle. The battles covered are:
- First Bull Run (First Manassas) (1861)
- Wilson’s Creek (Oak Hills) (1861)
- Fort Donelson (1862)
- Pea Ridge (Elkhorn Tavern) (1862)
- Shiloh (1862)
- Seven Pines (Fair Oaks) (1862)
- Gaines’s Mill (1862)
- Second Bull Run (Manassas) (1862)
- Antietam (Sharpsburg) (1862)
- Perryville (1862)
- Fredericksburg (1862)
- Stones River (Murfreesboro) (1863)
- Chancellorsville (1863)
- Vicksburg (1863)
- Brandy Station (1863)
- Gettysburg (1863)
- Chickamauga (1863)
- Missionary Ridge (Chattanooga) (1863)
- The Wilderness (1864)
- Kennesaw Mountain (1864)
- Atlanta (1864)
- Franklin (1864)
- Nashville (1864)
- Bentonville (1865).
I have already ordered my copy of the paperback from Lulu and hope to receive it within the next ten days.
He’s truly prolific, Bob! (I recently nabbed a pdf of Bismarck…but yet to give it a run through). Looking forward to your playtests, when your new shiny rule book arrives 👍🏼.
