Battle Statistics

Commanding Generals: Samuel Heintzelman(Union), Lawrence Branch(Confederate)

Strength

Infantry: 8521 Union, 6427 Confederate
Cavalry: 310 Union, 0 Confederate
Artillery: 650(26 guns) Union, 0 Confederate
Total: 9,481 Union, 6,427 Confederate

For once we outnumbered them, though that was not the case until the last hour when the reinforcements showed up.

Casualties

Infantry: 843 Union, 2701 Confederate
Cavalry: 112 Union, 0 Confederate
Artillery: 10(0 guns) Union, 0 Confederate
Total: 955 Union, 2701 Confederate

Good numbers here overall, almost 3:1. Tannatt accounted for over half our losses, and Devin's "elite"(meaning, the best in the Army, but only *) cavalry did not do as well as hoped against the skirmishers. Everyone else pretty much cleaned up though.

Brigades

Since it's a smaller engagement, I'll list em all here.

** Appler -- 278 kills, 95 losses
** Carruth -- 346 kills, 28 losses(on the northern front with Tannatt, but he was rarely targeted for whatever reason)
** Devin -- 61 kills, 112 losses(not good, to put it mildly)
** Egan -- 206 kills, 18 losses(good work in a short period of time on the field)
** Hagood -- 256 kills, 98 losses. Never stayed in one place for long, and despite the short fight was exhausted by the end of it. Protected our rear against the skirmishers very effectively.
** Rains -- 324 kills, 32 losses. When he joined the main line against the north, this battle was effectively ended.
** Root -- 318 kills, 10 losses
** Stuart -- 25 kills, 0 losses
** Tannatt -- 876 kills, 570 losses. Definitely the heroes of the day here, taking about 40% casualties but the good Colonel was not hit. Without them, this is not a success.

Officers

** Lt. Col. Stephen Carruth is promoted to full Colonel.
** Col. George Tannatt is promoted to Brigadier General(*). Can't argue after the way his men stood their ground in minimal cover(a wheat field) against repeated rebel assaults.

Weapons

** Re-Bored Farmer -- 46 rescued, 357 captured
** Springfield M1855 -- 74 rescued
** Springfield M1842 -- 294 rescued, 121 captured
** M1841 Mississippi -- 4 captured. This is a new weapon we haven't seen before. Short version is that in terms of accuracy and price they occupy a middle-ground between the two Springfields; better than the '42, not as good as the '55. The price reflects that. Obviously we'll need a lot more before we can consider using them.
** Hunter -- 0 rescued, 128 captured. III Corps has a skirmisher unit with fairly low numbers using these. They'll be up next, and will be glad of the chance to bolster their numbers as we'd used up all the previously-captured ones.
** Colt M1855 -- 55 rescued. About half of the ones Devin lost.

Reward

** Career Points -- +1
** Reputation -- +4
** Funding -- $110k
** Recruits -- 5k

Here's our next fight, which will involve III Corps just four days after Rendezvous, and the latest Intel Report. Nothing much has changed there. Due to our last two victories, we'll face a 5% smaller army than normal.
