Altar of Freedom: Chattanooga

November 1863

Shattered by their defeat at Chickamauga, Rosecrans and the remnants of the Army of the Cumberland have retreated to the banks of the Tennessee River at the rail junction of Chattanooga. Bragg has pursued and placed the town under siege. The Union force is running out of food and time.

Meanwhile, Ulysses S. Grant has been placed in overall command of Union forces in the west. He relieves Rosecrans and places George Thomas in command of the Army of the Cumberland. Determined to break the siege, he calls up reinforcements-- Sherman's veterans of the Vicksburg campaign and eastern troops under Joe Hooker arrive, just as Bragg sends off Longstreet to attack a secondary objective.

Grant must break the siege of Chatanooga using his three armies. To do this he must take Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge, overlooking the town. The strongly entrenched confederate forces have to hope they can weather the assault.
