Game Description

Rebel Sabers: Civil War Cavalry Battles recreates four battles fought almost entirely between cavalry forces. Built on the Great Battles of the American Civil War (GBACW) system, Rebel Sabers provides definitive cavalry rules for the series, rules which can be grafted onto and used with previous games in the GBACW_Series. The system itself, for the unfamiliar with it, enables players to recreate, on a regimental level, virtually any battle in the American Civil War.

Brandy Station
Trevillians Station
Dutch Roads (Side Battle During Gettysburg).
