Overview of the strategic situation at 6:40 am.

| Note Stuart's troopers moving up from Boonsborough into the Union rear. |
Overview of the main tactical situation. Another disastrous round of routing has forced the Union player to disengage several divisions north and east of Tilghmanton. I am going to use the lull to start withdrawing my own forces. The original Rebel dawn attack has shaken McClellan's nerves and caused a lot of casualties but I can't achieve any more here and we probably need to cautiously extricate ourselves.

| Batteries withdraw just north of Fairplay as exhausted brigades start to pull out of Tilghmanton. |
Robertson's cavalry brigade is shown here approaching the Union rear from the east of Antietam creek as Stuart attempts to add to McClellan's headaches. That's what he's paid for.
 |
| Trying to stay unpredictable - Rebel cavalry head west into the Union rear rather than strike out north for the Funkstown VPs. |
