Across the Wide Missouri is a collection of three Civil War battles in Missouri and Arkansas - Wilson's Creek, Pea Ridge and Prairie Grove. Prairie Grove and Wilson's Creek can be played in three to four hours. Pea Ridge is a two day battle with hidden initial deployments, and can take up to 8 hours. Various alternative history options are included.
Wilson's Creek and Prairie Grove are solitaire friendly. Pea Ridge requires hidden units and maneuver, so some sort of randomized battle plan is needed. Multiple personality disorder or a cooperative friend a plus.
