The Cold Harbor & Spotsylvania battle packs by Chris Baker use 00.00 as a start time for all troops that start the scenarios on the map. A start time of 00.00 causes all brigades to start fully entrenched, including brigades in columns. I have edited the .scns to change the start time of most brigades to avoid this. I have changed some directions faced and illegal formations (eg b or m for batteries) and added prefixes for units that have duplicate I.D.s in the OBs. I have moved Gen. Birney in the Spotsylvania scenario so as not to start in the midst of the Confederates.  I have also added some new building graphics.

These fictional maps do not have enough named sites to be useful for random or randomized games.

To install: (unless you are short of hard disk space) make a copy of your Gettysburg folder and rename it as "ColdHarbor&Spotsylvania").  Unzip into the ColdHarbor&Spotsylvania folder with "Overwrite Existing Files" & "Use Folder Names" checked.  Make a shortcut on the desktop by right clicking on lee.exe, "send to" then "Desktop (create shortcut)".  Copy the contents of one of the subfolders to the ColdHarbor&Spotsylvania folder and play the corresponding scenario, then the same with the other sub folder. When you have had enough ColdHarbor&Spotsylvania, delete the ColdHarbor&Spotsylvania folder & shortcut, no need to restore.


v 2.2: Some typos corrected. Artillery have multiples of 20 men. Ramseur's brigade renumbered and letter codes used to deploy a portion of it.
