Command Sim: Rhodes Farm

An engagement has started on January 5th 1862 on just north of Unger's Store on what is being called the Unger's Store Road.  A Union line has formed on the north edge of the Rhodes Farm (fictional farm for the simulation), where it ran into Ashby's Cavalry.
The Rhodes Farm looking north towards Whitacre, which is obscured by the morning mist. To the west (left), Middle Fork of Sleepy Creek is visible beyond the stubble of Rhodes' fields. The lower slope of Timber Ridge is visible to the right (east) of the farm.
