Nope, I'm wrong about Johnston's possible death.
He dies on a 1.
14 3/14/2026 11:23:00 AM Spring 1861 Confederate Message And poor Johnston goes to the turn track, on next turn.
13 3/14/2026 11:13:00 AM Spring 1861 Confederate Message No possible general loss for me because the force ratio was at least 1:3.
Per the text of the Campaign card, you can't move the same force twice. Because of the odds of your win in Winchester, your army there may finish its move (with remaining Move Points), but may not move again.
