About the Game

I decided to attempt a set of rules for the American Revolution. I wanted randomized movement for a fog of war feel. Rules that could recreate a battle in a single evening. Troops to be able to attempt running away if commanded to do so. And finally I wanted Fresh Troops troops who are stationary to fire better than other troops. Hopefully I have captured these concepts in this set of rules.

These rules can also be used for The French Indian War and The War of 1812. There are 4 AWI scenarios, 1 FIW scenario and 1 1812 scenario.

Hopefully you will enjoy these rules.
