Scenario Briefing: Historical - Militia Brigadier General James Potter had established his headquarters at Harriton Farm along the Gulph Road, but had units spread out throughout the countryside. His militia needed to keep the British away from the crossings that the Americans are intending to use. The British under General Charles Cornwallis were heading northwest on Gulph road, foraging and intent on reaching Matson's Ford on the Schuylkill River. With the elite troops under his command, Cornwallis would not shy away from a fight.
Recommended Rules: [Default]
Intended to be played as the Crown forces against the AI but can be played from either side or Head-to-Head.
