Date: 20 June 1781 - Scale/Size: Company Level, Medium - Location: Ninety-Six, South Carolina ~175 miles NW of Charleston, South Carolina.
Scenario Briefing: Variant - Learning of the approach of the relief force, Major General Nathaniel Greene opted to push forward the assault to make an attempt to carry the position before it was too late. Sappers had advanced the American trenches to within 30 yards of the Star Fort. The Americans had built a tower for riflemen to snipe at the defenders. Troops from Virginia and North Carolina would cut off and storm the Star Fort, before turning on the main outpost. Meanwhile in the south, Lieutenant Colonel Henry Lee would lead the assault against the Stockade Fort.
In this Variant, Greene has delayed his assault to allow militias to join in the attack. However, this will likely allow some or all of Rawdon's Relief Force to arrive on the scene.
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.
