Gen. Cornwallis was preparing to cross the James river being closely pursed by Lafayette, so a trap was set for the headstrong Frenchman. Unaware that Cornwallis had hidden his main force while enticing the Americans to attack his (decoy) baggage train while it prepared to cross the river, Lafayette ordered his his light infantry and Pennsylvanian brigades forward. The signal for the ambush to be sprung was the approach of the Colonial forces to an 'abandoned' 6pdr gun. Notes: A good game for a 'blind' scenario. AI for both sides will need tweaking.
