Antietam
September 17, 1862
Antietam is a tactical level simulation of the bloodiest one day battle ever to be fought on North American soil. It was the culmination of the Confederate summer offensive of 1862 and marked the end of the first Southern invasion of the North. While tactically it was little better than a draw, it was a decisive strategic and political defeat for the Confederacy and profoundly influenced the eventual outcome of the war. The battle took place around Antietam Creek, a tributary of the Potomac River, in Maryland.
