Battle of Pittsburgh

I'm sorry, I do not have any pictures.
In late 1861 the Army of the Shenandoah, commanded by J. E. Johnston, and ably assisted by Stonewall Jackson, Barnard E. Bee, and Edmund Kirby Smith captured Pittsburgh, Pa rather easily. In the the next few days, they held off three attacks.
This must be a glitch, but....
a fourth attack occurred. 245 elite infantry units with no commander attacks Pittsburgh's 5,000 remaining Confederates. Union wins, 5,000 casualties. All the general's had crosses next to their names. Johnston, Jackson, Bee, and Kirby Smith all dead. It was comical and absolutely damaging. I think the elite lost only 17. How elite are they????
