Nansemonde River (Union) - Victory in 3 minutes

[Lif]

Hi, I just wanted to report on my Nansemonde River experience (Union Campaign). I played this mission and won within 3 minutes. I just rushedstraight to the battery fortification with all my troops to find it empty (except for the 3 guns I am told to destroy). I charged in and won this battle instantly after killing those canons. There were a lot of Confeds coming from the west, but they were too late. Is this intended? Somehow it did not feel right. I believe this would have been a very hard mission, if the Confed troops were on position. Of course I gambled with my all-in, but in the end it was an easy win without great losses. I will upload the battle on Youtube in the next days, maybe it will help you.

It even tells you to cut them off and work them down before they get to the fort.   The more you kill on the way the easier the fight should be.   I guess the other thing was to just rush and beat them to the fort.  Many a battles have been won over time by just who got there first.

In fact it tells me to wait for the ironclads, which I ignored.^^
