The Winter War simulations ended in 2017 and have been closed. The South Branch Campaign simulation is underway and has been active since October 2017. The simulation uses a fictional campaign theater and a "fantasy order of battle" approach. Each side selected from a force pool of historical regiments, batteries and commanders to form a non-historical army.
Fighting has taken place at fictional locations such as Newtown, Sitesville, Sagarville, Foxtown, Madison and Mount Zion Church. Each location is represented on a campaign map and has a corresponding modified map for us in the Take Command 2nd Manassas game. Players move corps, divisions and sometimes detached brigades and batteries across the campaign map until they make contact with an enemy unit. Engagements then take place, with casualties and ammunition levels being carried forward from one turn to the next. Units can gain experience and unit quality during the course of the campaign and officers may increase their ability. The simulation is expected to end in late June, with a potential follow-up simulation starting in the autumn 2018.
