Yes, there was Confederate cavalry with Forrest in my original scenario design. I'm not sure why it was changed on this site. Thanks for catching this, I did not see that when the scenario was first loaded.

In the original scenario by David Vander Ark (from Rod Lilley's site) the unit with General Forrest is a cavalry unit.

Hard to see that there would be a huge difference, the artillery is strength 3 instead of 2, and unless you depended on the all out attack card (which wasn't much loved), then it would play the same.

A bit of historical text wouldn't go astray though.

Sadly Battlecry is one of the less played C&C games.

I played it for sure, a long time ago with the new Edition rules/cards, but can´t remember the results :whistle:

I designed this scenario for the original game, not the 2010 release. I'm curious if anyone has any comments about the scenario?
