You can't win them all. Based on previous experience, expect this campaign to have losses comparable to the historic Gettysburg Campaign or Overland Campaign. Some divisions will attack positions and get repulsed with heavy losses. Some divisions will defend positions and be over-run. Regiments and batteries will be routed, guns lost, and Brigade and Division Commanders fall during the course of battle. Some of your divisions will remain as shadows of their former selves by the end of the simulation.
I remember being a corps commander and losing most of my corps during my first sim. Strange as it may seem, it took me a while to recover from that and effectively get back into the action. Remember, it is just a game. Take the losses in stride, rally the men, and keep on fighting to the end.
