Date: 28 October 1776 - Scale/Size: Company Level, Medium - Location: Southwest of White Plains, ~26 Miles NNE of New York City.

Scenario Briefing: Historical - The Battle of White Plains opened with General William Howe sending a division under Lieutenant General Leopold Philip de Heister to assault the American right established on the Chatterton Hill, overlooking the fields south of White Plains and the approaches to the rest of the American defenses.

Design Note: This is the Company Level treatment of the fight for Chatterton Hill, the pivotal fight at the Battle of White Plains. A Battalion Level treatment is also available. This is not a subtle scenario. De Heister needs to take the hill. McDougall needs to hold it.
