Date: 11 September 1777 - Scale/Size: Battalion Level, Medium - Location: Chester County ~25 miles WNW of Philadelphia.
Scenario Briefing: Historical - Alerted to Cornwallis Division on his right flank, Washington was able to pivot three of his divisions (Stephen's, Stirling's and Sullivan's) and place them on the line of Cornwallis march, about a mile SE of the Birmingham Friends Meeting House. The British moved off Osborne Hill with some of their best troops; the Guards, their light infantry battalions, Hessian Grenadiers all supported by a strong force of Hessian jaegers. If the American flank does not hold, the young American Army would likely be annihilated between the two wings of the British Army.
Recommended Rules: [Default]
Intended to be played as the American forces against the AI but can be played from either side or Head-to-Head.
Further Reading: Decision at Brandywine: The Battle on Birmingham Hill by Robert Dunkerly.
