Hint: When first learning the game, try a short scenario with a small map.
These games can usually be completed in a few hours and won't overwhelm a new
player with lots of units to control. Try the Blackburn's Ford scenario from
1st Bull Run as the Confederate player.
Hint: Use artillery units with support from infantry to help take well-defended
positions. Artillery at short range is deadly. It can cause three to four
times the damage of regular small-arms fire and can quickly blow holes in
enemy lines even against the best defenses.
Hint: When playing against the computer, remember that sometimes the hint of an
attack will be enough to send its units scrambling for cover.
Hint: Be sure to keep brigades and their commanders close together.
