A guide to the men, the weapons, the battles, and campaigns and how
to re-fight them in miniature. The American War of Revolution
1775-1783 is a war of battles bearing colourful names, most of them
ideally suited for re-fighting on table-top battlefields. The
skilful general can triumphantly turn historical defeats into
victories. This book tells the wargamer how to don the mantle of
Washington and lead American Armies against British regulars to
display greater tactical genius than Burgoyne and Cornwallis. After
outlining the historical course of the war, the soldiers of both
sides and their styles of fighting are described and commanders
evaluated. This means re-fighting the major battles as wargames are
explained, with maps of the battlefields transformed into table-top
terrains. Hints on formulating rules include two complete sets that
authentically simulate warfare of the period. A new chapter, with a
previously unpublished set of rules by Donald Featherstone, is
included in this edition.
