Scenarios

The Johnny Reb Gaming Society publishes original ACW miniature wargaming scenarios in our hard copy newsletter, Charge!, each quarter. Back issues are available in hard copy directly from the Society’s newsletter editors (Scott and Debi Mingus) or via electronic format at www.magweb.com.

Occasionally, we will feature links to on-line scenarios here on the blogsite as well. For example, my scenario for the fight at Pardee Field (Culp’s Hill at Gettysburg) on July 3, 1863, can be found on-line at PARDEE FIELD. This was the original Johnny Reb 3 scenario that I slightly reworked for inclusion in my scenario book, Enduring Valor: Gettysburg in Miniature.

I have also compiled a master list of the vast majority of the JR Civil War scenarios that have appeared in hard copy format over the years since the original Johnny Reb rules were introduced in 1983. Note that this list does not include American Revolution scenarios for the AWI variant rules sets, nor scenarios for Dean West’s The Final Argument of Kings, an excellent variant for early 19th century warfare.

RULES CLARIFICATIONS AND PLAYING AIDS

Here is a link to an improved version of the standard Johnny Reb 3 rules charts, used by permission of John Hill. Johnny Reb 3 modified tables

Some of the gamers on the JRIII Yahoo Group worked with Doug Kline, Dean West, and others to rewrite a portion of the Johnny Reb 3 rules for added clarity. Have a look! jr-clarification

Finally, here is a link to my step-by-step turn sequence for Johnny Reb 3, incorporating the above charts, but in sequential order. Johnny Reb 3 step-by-step

    Hello Scott, I saw you once published a scenario for Glorietta Pass in Miniature Wargames #132. Do you have that available????

    I do have JR scenarios for Valverde and Peralta and want to play the last one and Glorietta Pass at two conventions and Valverde at my club. All being part of this years ‘campaign of 1862′ (also with F&F).
    I am making a Glorietta Pass scenario myself as well, which includes Chivington’s excursion too (probably with a what if kind of manner either stumbling into the CS supply train or as he was ordered, getting into Scurry’s flank as was intended).
    Well, first make some buildings for Peralta!

    Hope to hear from you.

    Hi,

    We are using these rules in our club (Tin Soldiers of Antwerp) to recreate the Scott Mingus scenarios of the battle of Gettysburg.

    One question could not be answered and I wonder if you guys could help out.

    - When infantry fires at a lone artillery section and inflicts one (non-horse) casualty, would this just be moot or the whole section or just ..

    Thanks,

    Andre

    If the unit is a single section, I play that it is eliminated by a non-horse hit on the Combat Results Table.
