Scenario Briefing: Historical - General John Burgoyne’s plan for October 7 was not going well. The Americans had again proved aggressive, moving out of their entrenchments to engage the British, Loyalist and German forces directly. The Crown forces were being pushed back to their redoubts. Brigadier General Benedict Arnold, who was embroiled in a command controversy had started the day with no command, rode out to take control and lead the Americans in their attempt to storm the formidable fortifications. Arnold would be wounded sorely in the leg, but Americans would carry the day, and with this victory, the fate of Burgoyne’s Canada Army was sealed.
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.
