Confederate forces advance to capture both bridges over the turnpike
Federal troops deploy with gun support to protect the bridge
One brigade holds a farm to halt the Confederate advance
By turn three, the Rebels have deployed cavalry and their artillery and infantry have pushed back the Federal position at the farm
With their loss of artillery, the federals are able to burn one bridge and withdrawl, giving a partial victory to both sides
Canadian Militia, with NWMP help attempt to close in on the Metis lines
The Metis in their rifle pits
Their view of the NWMP and Militia
Dumont gives the order to fire
Crozier orders an advance
The Metis pour fire into the advancing Canadians
Having built well dug in positions, the Metis are oblivious to Canadian fire
The Canadians begin to take Casualties
The cavalry charge hasn't worked
The Rifles deploy in skirmish order 
Metis begin to go down
The Canadian left flank has suffered
and so has the Metis centre
With fixed bayonets, the Canadians charge home
a lone mounted Metis dashes back to Batoche
Dumont tries rally his men
and the Canadian strike home
From the rule book 
Confederate line advances on the field in column
After firing one volley, the Confederate line then attempts to strike the Union line at an angle
however, the Union line wheels to meet the line and blasts the rebels.
