Historical. The clash at Concord and Lexington had started the real fighting in the American Revolution. Both sides knew that a full scale battle was inevitable. The Americans took the first step by occupying the Charlestown peninsula, a move that would force a British response. British General Howe landed a sizeable force on the peninsula later that day, with every expectation of taking the American fortifications on Breeds and Bunker Hill. This he did, but only with a fearful loss of his own soldiers and officers.

The British have to advance uphill against entrenched American milirtia.

Casualties for both sides are way too high compared to historical performance.
