Victory is determined by the accumulation of Victory Points. Points are awarded to each Player according to the Victory Point Schedule for the elimination of Enemy units and/or for the control of certain hexes.
Each Player starts with zero Victory Points. These Victory Points are awarded for a variety of actions as detailed on the Victory Point Schedule. At the end of the game, the number of Points is totaled for each Player. The Confederate Player subtracts his Point total from the Union Player's Point total to compute a differential. The Players then refer to the Levels of Victory Chart to determine the winning Player.
1. The Confederate Player receives three Victory Points for each Union unit eliminated.
2. The Confederate Player receives four Victory Points for either of the following hexes 1514 and 1417 if he ever controls either hex during the game (or eight Victory Points if he ever controlled both hexes). These Points are awarded only at the time of control of the hexes, and are only awarded once during the game (see Case 17.15 for definition of "control").
3. The Union Player receives two Victory Points for each Confederate unit eliminated.
1. The Confederate Player receives four Victory Points for each Chattanooga town hex which is in the Zone of Control of one (or more) Confederate infantry units. The presence of a Union unit in a Chattanooga town hex does not negate the Zone of Control for Victory Point purposes.
2. The Union Player receives four Victory Points for each of the following hexes 2207, 2311, 2416 and 2419 if he is the last Player to control these hexes (see Case 17.15 for definition of "control").
