This is my third attempt - I lose out on the final objective which I can eventually hold, but with 2 mins left on the objective, it times out. Argghhh.
I probably would not have got an MV, but the scenario actually runs for 45 mins, instead of the 50 mins listed. I playing away there thinking I've still got over 5 mins to go, and then it's curtains). Haha

Whew! Twas a hard nut to crack.
I found that that you have to be aggressive, pushing all the time to reach the third and final objective, and then try and hold it with around 10 mins left on the clock.
I missed an extra 100 points by 2 seconds, so not too shoddy!

Out of the 3 objectives, the only one I managed to hold for a length of time was Devil's Den. I eventually got trashed in the Wheat Field objective, and never managed to get the flag flying at Little Round Top at all.
I reckon I'll have to do a major rethink on the strategy on this one!
Cheers,

Thanks for the tip off's Reb.
I split my forces between Devil's Den and Little Round Tops, took 'em, and held 'em, despite various Union counter attacks.
It still took a lot of intense concentration to keep on top of it all.
It's not supposed to be easy, and by jingo, this one certainly was not, despite my score.

Close, but no cigar!
The right flank suffered the most, with the Reb support advances, but also I'd not realised that I could probably have re-taken Devil's Den a bit sooner, using my support troops, pushing them more.
Immersive stuff Reb, thanks!

Like you said, with hindsight I got the MV on the second attempt.
I think the key was to split some of the support brigades, using them to defend Devil's Den and the 2 Wheatfield objectives.
Also holding the Big Round Top until it times out and then using these regiments, which include 2 sharpshooter regiments to then counter attack the Confederate rear, who are trying to surround Little Round Top.
Of course there are a whole lot more sort of micro management going on, It certainly keeps you busy!
Cheers Reb, I'm hoping for maybe another TG map, a big ask I know!
