Southwest Sector - Original Wartime Map

Of course, what is called the southwest sector in THE WAR IN ARKANSAS II command simulation was never called by that name. I have also made numerous adjustments to the map for gaming purposes and added on a few localities that appear in post-war maps from the 1890s. Most of the tows and localities, however, roughly approximate what existed during the 1860s as found from the Johnson and Ward map of Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana, from 1864. Here is a piece of that map corresponding to the area being fought over in the sim.

Notice that Mt. Moriah has been moved significantly to the northwest in the sim. Other localities were also moved onto primary roads. The primary road from Princeton to Hot Springs via Tulip and Pleasant Ridge was also modified slightly.
