Gettysburg Scenario requests?

Since Pipe Creek is almost finished, as promised I'll be working to add a few more scenarios to the Bonus Scenarios pack. If you can think of an engagement that is not covered in the Historical Scenarios, Bonus Scenarios, or Brigade Scenarios, you can request it here. I'll accept historic engagements or What If's. Here are two that have already been requested:

Crawford's counter attack near the Round Top's on day 2
The Iron Brigade's stand in Herbst Woods and their retreat into town on day 1

LP,

Don't know if this has been covered or requested before. How about the First Day in total, with all units on both sides arriving as per historical timing. The exception would be having Buford's cavalry, (spelled C-A-V-A-L-R-Y, not Calvary, as I have seen here lately), in position at first combat on July 1st. Also, possibly, set it up like Pickett's Assault, where you can chose any commander you want - Corps, Division, etc. Could be cool, eh?

As for your first request, good idea. I'll definitely consider it. That would be a beast to make but not too bad. It would basically be combining the scripting from some of the first scenarios.

Second request, that scenario already exists. You should already have the NSD Sample 1 Mod. It has Pickett's Charge where you can choose any commander on the field before starting the scenario.

The Wheatfield battle is covered in detail in my Kershaw Carryover series, at least for the Confederate side. I could make a Union scenario or two where you are defending the Wheatfield before the Confederates attacked it, up until Caldwell attacks. How would like that?

How about Lee's falling back to the Cashtown position.
Or following Longstreet's advice and moving to a position around the south side of the Federal line.

I think he means having it set up like the Pickett's Charge scenario, where you could choose any unit at any level for the scenario.

Any chance of a scenario that would allow us to attack the Railroad Cut? I know you can have similar encounters if the AI is willing on some of the scenarios, but it'd be neat to have a scenario scripted as to where you will have to attack and take the cut from Davis' men.

I second this. Perhaps DeTrobiand's brigade? They were right in the thick of it.
