Update...this looks to be the old SSI game..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yk_V7KWk7UThere were some features of these SSI games that I wish would be incorporated into the JTS games, but graphics isn't one of them. It was better on the Commodore 64, but not by much. Still, considering the computer power available back then, the games were amazing.
The Command system in this game and the others in the series was one of the best I've seen in 50 years of wargaming, pc miniature and board.
The officers affecting the units MP allowed the Confederates to often maneuver better than their Union opponent without the artificial morale bonus we see given to the CSA in the Tiller games. The casualty system with killed/wounded/missing and missing possibly returning overnight was also excellent as was the visibility range lowering due to smoke after heavy fire. Played this one often with my friend Dave, we thought the Command system worked so well we modified it for use in our Napoleonic miniature system.
