"Cannon and Thunder" - Reno's Corps

Historically, the Battle of Chantilly was fought as a series of disconnected attacks by the Union forces. In this scenario, you play as Major General Jesse L. Reno. You will have command of all of the historically accurate Union forces. It is your choice to follow history or your own ideas of how it ought to have been done.
