Scenario Briefing: What If - A depleted American force led by General Nathaniel Greene is posted to slow or stop a strong thrust by General Charles Cornwallis, who is aiming to strike the Americans in their winter quarters. With General Daniel Morgan off in the backcountry harrying the successful forces led by Lieutenant Banastre Tarleton (and near simultaneously maneuvering in the vicinity of the Cowpens, the American Army is shorthanded and, while the position is good, most certainly shorthanded.
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.
Further Reading: While I am not sure of John Tiller's original inspiration, you could do worse than to spend time with The Road to Guilford Courthouse by John Buchanan which amply covers this period in the Southern Campaign.
