Date: 27 February 1776 - Scale/Size: Company Level, Small - Location: Moore’s Creek, ~20 miles Northwest of Wilmington, North Carolina
Scenario Briefing: Variant - Once numbering close to 2,000, the loyalist contingent had shrunk to 700-800 men, including 600 Highland Scots along with the remainder Regulators when they arrived in the vicinity of Moore’s Creek. Lieutenant Colonel Donald MacLeod assumed command following a council of war marched in the pre-dawn hours only to find the rebel defensive works abandoned.
In this variant, Colonel Richard Caswell has left his force split occupying breastworks on both sides of the Creek. The Highlanders and Regulators would sweep out of the fog and try and overwhelm the North Carolinians.
Recommended Rules: [Default]
Can be played from either side against the AI or Head-to-Head.
