Just where the Rebels didn't want them to be, enfilading their side/rear. "Give them hell" (see below):
The combined musketry of the bulk of the (ammo low - half firepower) 20th Maine to the front, plus the detached company (doubled firepower) was savage (especially since another 10 was rolled).
Rebel stands fell and the front Confederate regiment went "worn". A psychological victory, though the "use them of lose them" revealing of the flank company would surely mean deadly attention is cast their way from the Rebel second line in the turns to come.

What a fantastic looking game.
This turned out a bit different to what I expected...a fast moving game...and a great report!!
Cheers

Thanks Rodger, all praise and accreditation goes to the stalwart Grognards of the Redcar Rebels
Their collection and terrain, played over several weeks and still "in progress" as I type with the game very much in the balance
Thanks Paul's Bods
Fast and rather furious in its cut and thrust
Gald both of you like it!
I am getting seriously tempted by these 28mm ACW figures!
