Scenario Briefing: Historical - Believing that Greene was without artillery, Lord Rawdon moved out of his position defending Camden in order to attack the American camp on Hobkirk's Hill. He maneuvered to flank the American left, but his movement was detected by American pickets. Captain Robert Kirkwood and his Delaware troops were able to delay the British forces long enough for the Americans to properly deploy along the ridge.
