Introduction

This third edition rulebook includes significant changes and additions to both the mechanics of play and the counters. The original game abstracted various aspects of the war; the new edition portrays these with leaders, partisans, and notable elite formations that saw action throughout the conflict; this enhances the play and accuracy of the game.

The main body of rules is built around many scenarios covering the major campaigns of the war. This includes the original Basic Game Scenario and 13 Advanced Game Scenarios developed after the publication of the game. The Campaign Simulation Game contains everything needed to recreate the Revolutionary War from Boston to Yorktown. There are 6 campaign games to choose from, depending on the interest of the players. This includes the 3 original ones and 3 developed after publication of the game.

Players must obtain the new counters to play the 3rd Edition. They are part of the BOARDGAMER'S UNOFFICIAL PLAYER'S GUIDE.

Components

MAPBOARD (BOARD): The board represents the 13 colonies and Canada at the time of the Revolutionary War. A coordinate system is printed on the board for reference purposes and/or recording unit positions. Letters A through AAAA run along the west edge of the board, and numbers 1 through 61 run along the south and east edges. Locations are found by the intersection of a lettered hex row with a numbered hex row. For example, Savannah is at B13 and Charleston at H17.

BOARD CHANGE: Wilmington, NC is a Red Star Town/Port. See individual scenario victory conditions for changes.
CLARIFICATIONS:
- There are TWO types of class 3 hexsides: thin line (river/lake/bay) and heavy line (coastal). Sea-lane hexsides are not coastal.
- on composite hexsides, land and/or river hexsides take precedence over class 3 bay or coastal hexsides
- half-hexes and the four class 3 lake hexsides along the edge of the board are all playable

SCENARIOS: Each scenario is a separate, self-contained game recreating a particular campaign of the Revolutionary War. All pertinent information for playing the scenario is listed at the end of this rulebook.

PLAYING PIECES: Players are restricted to using only the number of counters provided with the game. The playing pieces contain the following information. For Units/Fleets, the number in the lower right corner is its movement allowance.

I. Sequence of Play

Each turn is one month long and is divided into two Player Segments. This sequence is continued for every turn of the game.

A. FIRST PLAYER SEGMENT

MOVEMENT PHASE: the first player moves some, none, or all his units up to their movement allowance, subject to terrain limitations and the presence of enemy units
COMBAT PHASE: both players initiate and resolve any combat they choose to execute against enemy units occupying the same hexes with their friendly units
- EXCEPTION: only the player who's Segment it is can do this in the Basic Game Scenario

B. SECOND PLAYER SEGMENT: the second player repeats the same procedure for his Player Segment

II. Movement Phase

Each unit, or stack of units in the same hex, is moved individually by tracing the path of movement through each separate hex.

Its printed movement allowance (measured in Movement Points (MP)) is the distance a unit may move in one turn. These MP are expended one point for each hex entered. However, terrain restrictions require additional MP to enter certain types of hexes.
movement is always voluntary
Each unit can move in any direction or combination of directions. A unit may spend some, none, or all its MP in a given Movement Phase. Unused MP are not carried to the next turn; they are not accumulated.
friendly units must stop and end all movement whenever entering hex occupied by enemy Strength Points (SP) not inside Fort
TERRAIN RESTRICTIONS: A complete list of terrain effects on movement is in the Terrain Effects Chart. Costs are cumulative.
- Units may not cross hexsides without sufficient MP to do so. However, units can move one hex every Movement Phase regardless of available MP. This does not allow the crossing of class 3, island or sea lane hexsides.
- CLARIFICATIONS: all-mountain hexes are treated same as a swamp hex with 6 mountain hexsides
- EXAMPLE: To cross a rough terrain hexside that is also a class 1 river hexside would cost 2 MP for the rough terrain PLUS 1 MP for the river PLUS 1 MP to enter the next hex (clear hex), for a total of 4 MP.
no limit to the number of units (combat & non-combat) that occupy a single hex
At any time, a player may consolidate or breakdown SP on the same hex. Always use the same color and unit type when doing so.

A. Entrenchments

BUILDING: any SP may build an Entrenchment on a non-enemy-occupied hex at start of the friendly Movement Phase
- can't be built on hex containing Fort or another Entrenchment
- SP that build Entrenchments may not move during that Movement Phase
- all Units on hex with a friendly Entrenchment are inside (placed underneath) the Entrenchment
EFFECT ON COMBAT: Entrenched units gain a –1 die roll modifier (DRM) when defending (in addition to other DRMs).
DESTRUCTION: entrenchments on hex without friendly units (combat & non-combat) are instantly removed from the board

B. Bateaux

Bateaux (small boats, rafts, galleys) were an important source of transportation in 18th Century America. Incorporating them into the game, however, requires a special concept of movement: ALONG water hexsides as well as THROUGH land hexes.

BUILDING: any Magazine or Supply that begins its Movement Phase adjacent to a river, class 3 (not coastal), or port-entry hexside that is free of enemy Fleets and on hex free of enemy SP that are not inside Fort may build a Bateau
- may be built at the beginning of the Movement Phase by either of the following two methods:
  - BUILD: 1 Bateau is created for 1Sup or 1Mag on the hex by simply inverting the building unit (Magazine or Supply). The Bateau is placed inverted on the same hex.
    - the building unit can't move or support combat in Segment it built the Bateau
  - EXCHANGE: Supplies/Magazines may be exchanged for Bateaux at the following rates:
    - 1Sup, exchanged, creates up to 3 Bateaux placed inverted on hex
    - 1Mag, exchanged, creates up to 3 Bateaux and 1Sup all placed inverted on hex
- 6 Bateaux cannot be created on the same hex & inverted Bateaux may not move or be used
- all inverted units are turned face-up at end of Combat Phase of Segment of construction & each Bateau is placed with its arrow pointing to an adjacent river, class 3 (not coastal), or port-entry hexside
- destroyed counters can only be rebuilt in the turn of their destruction if they were not moved or used that turn
HEXSIDE MOVEMENT: Bateaux may move along river and class 3 (not coastal) hexsides: 15 hexsides max. per turn
- no limit to the number (friendly or enemy) that may be positioned on, or move through, one hexside
- tracing movement, it's arrow must always point towards each individual hexside being counted – at end of movement, the arrow must point to hexside adjacent to playable land
- entering a class 1 or 2 river hexside adjacent to enemy SP not inside Fort, it must end on that hexside
- may not enter hexsides containing enemy Fleets
AS TRANSPORT: On a hexside free of enemy Fleets, a Bateau may transport units moving them by hexside movement. The cost is variable up to its transport capacity of 5 points.

Unit Type Transport Cost
Infantry 1 point per SP
Dragoons 2 points per SP
Artillery 2 points per unit
British Supply 2 points per unit
American/French Supply 1 point per unit
- to be transported, the units must begin their Movement Phase adjacent to the Bateau's hexside
- may drop off land-units along the way and continue moving to their destination
- forced to end movement due to presence of enemy SP, it must debark all units to either or both adjacent hexes (even if enemy-occupied)
- at end of its Movement Phase, must always debark all units to either or both adjacent playable land hexes
  - EXCEPTION: if hexside is rough terrain, it can only debark to hex on the river side
- transported units may not move (or embark) after they debark
PORTAGE: Bateaux may move thru 1 or 2 land hexes (not mountain/swamp) if accompanied by at least 1 SP restricted by terrain
- may also move 4 hexsides max. (hexside-movement or as-transport) entirely before OR (hexside-movement only) entirely after
- moving hexside to hex counts as first hex (no cost to move hex to hexside)
- transported units (not Artillery) may accompany the Bateau on land if remaining MP allow but must end there
AS FERRY: if hexside is free of enemy Fleets, Bateaux may ferry units
- may neither move nor change arrow pointing direction in the Movement Phase in which they act as ferries
- They reduce the crossing penalty across hexsides that their arrows point toward. Land-units crossing hexsides at these points (in either direction) enjoy the following reduced crossing penalties:
  - class 1 river: no crossing penalty (same as fords)
  - class 2 or 3 hexside: only one MP to cross (ignore mapboard ferry if present)
CAPTURE: Enemy Bateaux are instantly captured if both adjacent hexes are free of enemy SP when a friendly SP enters or already occupies one of the two hexes adjacent to hexside containing the Bateau. Enemy Bateaux (not on hexside) on hex or outside Fort without enemy SP are instantly captured if a friendly SP is on hex.
- simply replace with friendly Bateau (immediately available for normal use)
- at least 1 SP of the capturing force must accompany the Bateau during Segment it is captured
- The winner may opt to destroy captured Bateaux. He simply removes them from the board in Segment of capture.
DESTRUCTION: Players may destroy their Bateaux during the Movement Phase if enemy SP do not occupy both adjacent hexes. To be destroyed on land during portage, its hex must be free of enemy SP or it must be inside Fort.

Unit Type	Transport Cost
Infantry	1 point per SP
Dragoons	2 points per SP
Artillery	2 points per unit
British Supply	2 points per unit
American/French Supply	1 point per unit

C. Automatic Elimination (AE)

Whenever friendly units enter (or start movement from) an enemy-occupied hex with enough SP to create 6-1 odds or better, the enemy SPs may be automatically eliminated (removed from play). This occurs immediately.

EXCEPTION: eligible Partisans may instantly try to retreat per rule V.B. & if successful, may continue trying if pursued

Only units stacked together at the beginning of the Movement Phase and entering the target hex together may participate. Supply status (rule III.B.) must be considered in establishing an AE.
if starting from Fort, the stack must begin either entirely inside or entirely outside
if starting on land on hex with embarked units, the stack must begin entirely on land or entirely embarked
- naval and/or Bateau movement does not affect AE
units inside Forts may never be AE, however units in Entrenchments may be AE if there are enough SP to create 8-1 odds
after AE, the friendly units are not required to stop but may not embark and may only continue moving and/or attempt a Forced March (rule II.D.) after paying an additional 2 MP (3 MP against entrenched units) to do so

D. Forced March

Players may attempt to exceed the normal movement capabilities of SP by playing the Forced March rules below.

only SP under command of a Leader (rule IV.A.) or Artillery with Knox may attempt a Forced March
- EXCEPTION: if moved by Bateau/Naval transport this turn or if stacked with enemy SP that are not inside Fort, they can't
Forced Marches are attempted at end of all regular movement in the Movement Phase and may result in AE
A single Forced March is defined as one beginning on hex "X" and ending on hex "Z", regardless of the number of units involved. More than one Forced March situation cannot be created where units, starting on the same hex, all have the same destination.
Inverted/Decoy counters remain inverted unless the 1/2E result is rolled in step 2. of the following PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE:

moving player must state exactly which units are attempting Forced Marches, how many MP are being attempted, the exact route to be taken and the final-destination hex for all Forced Marches before any are attempted in that Movement Phase
moving player rolls one die for each attempt and consults the Forced March Table applying each result to the units in question
- SELECTED LEADER'S ABILITY
  - The following Leaders may subtract one (–1) from the Forced March die roll: Cornwallis, Grey, Tarleton, Greene and Wayne. However, the owning player must eliminate 1 Regular SP (not Elite; if none, Militia (not Elite) or Indian) from the force. This removal occurs before the die is rolled & must be done whether the March is successful or not.
  - Knox may include Artillery in a Forced March attempt of up to 3 MP if he adds one (+1) to the Forced March die roll
- each entry in the Forced March Table indicates the number of MP gained (if any) by the stack in the attempt
- "1/2E" means that half the units, rounded up, are eliminated from the board per rule III.A.2.G. If Glover's MA was used, it must be removed first, counting as 1 SP.
- All MP gained must be expended in movement along the announced route. If the units attempting the Forced March can't expend all the additional MP due to terrain restrictions, presence of enemy units, or AE, they are eliminated after the March.

III. Combat Phase

phasing player is Attacker, non-phasing player is Defender
Both players may attack enemy units stacked with friendly units. Only units in the same stack may attack each other.
- EXCEPTION: only Attacker can do this in the Basic Game Scenario
All eligible enemy units on the hex are attacked. All eligible friendly units on the hex must attack. None are excluded.
combat is always voluntary and units may never be attacked more than once per turn

A. Procedure

BASIC GAME

A. Attacker announces ONE hex he wishes to attack
B. Total SP of the Attacker & total SP of the Defender. Compare these with one another in an odds ratio. Reduce that ratio in favor of the Defender to its simplest form and find it on the Basic Game Combat Results Table.
C. roll one die and cross-index the number under the proper odds column
D. apply the result from the table to SP involved in the attack

ADVANCED GAME & CAMPAIGN GAME

Attacker announces ONE hex he wishes to attack
one round of combat is resolved as follows
- A. if Attacker is Bombarding, go to rule V.D. (Naval Bombardment) first
- B. Supply use and Elite (rule III.G.) commitment must be announced, first by the Attacker and then by the Defender
- C. total all combat modifiers to get one DRM then add or subtract this number to the Attacker's die roll on the Advanced Game Combat Results Table (CRT)
  - DRM less than –4 is treated as –4 and DRM greater than +4 is treated as +4
- D. Total each side's eligible SP (rule IV.B.) and compare these with one another in an odds ratio. Reduce that ratio in favor of the Defender to its simplest form and find it on the CRT (odds worse than 1-3 are not allowed; odds greater than 5-1 are treated as 5-1).
- E. Each side secretly chooses one of eight (8) Tactical Cards, simultaneously revealing them, and cross index the two cards on the Tactical Results Matrix. The outcomes from the Matrix are as follows:
  - +2, –1, 0 etc. – add this number to the Attacker's die roll on the CRT
  - +2, –2, 0 – add this number to Attacker's die roll as above, but NO FURTHER COMBAT is possible in that hex during the current Combat Phase
  - NC – NO COMBAT: the die is not rolled & there is no combat in that hex during the current Combat Phase
- F. roll one die and cross-index the number under the proper odds column on the CRT
  - die rolls less than –3 are treated as –3, die rolls greater than +10 are treated as +10
- G. apply result from the CRT to eliminate SP that participated in the combat using the following casualty priority lists
  - NE – NO EFFECT: there is no more combat in that hex during the current Combat Phase
  - AMERICAN:
    1. Elite if used
    2. 2 SP of RM/RD/AI in any combination
    3. 1CA
    4. alternate between 1RM (or RD/AI) and 1CA until all eliminated with no elimination of last CA until all RM/RD/AI are eliminated
    5. FR
  - BRITISH:
    1. Elite if used
    2. 1BI
    3. 2 SP of TM/TD in any combination
    4. 1BR
    5. alternate between 1TM (or TD/BI) and 1BR with no elimination of last BR until all TM/TD are eliminated
  - EXAMPLE: An American force of Elites, Militia and CA attacks a British force. If half the attacking force is eliminated, the American player must first remove the Elite if it was used. Then remove two Militia units, then one CA, and then alternate between Militia and CA until the half requirement is satisfied.
- H. RETREAT: if all SP controlled at start of this round are eliminated but friendly SP remain on hex, entire friendly force MAY retreat together one hex or inside friendly besieged Fort or embarked on Fleet(s) – if unable, force remains on hex
  - can't retreat across mountain hexside or any larger than a class 1 river
  - hex retreated to: clear over swamp, can't be enemy-occupied and if defending, can't be one the Attacker moved from
    - if unable, retreat to adjacent hex occupied by both enemy/friendly forces
- I. if Defender plays Withdraw card ending combat, he MUST try to retreat same as above
Attacker has the option to continue his attack for as long as he wants if NC on the Tactical Matrix has not been indexed, NE has not been rolled on the CRT and neither side has retreated
- if he continues, repeat step 2. (priority lists in step 2.G. are reset to "1)") – other Elites may be used
- if he declines, the Defender may continue by attacking that hex using steps 2. and 3. as if he was Attacker
  - EXCEPTION: Washington when stacked with CA may break off tactical-card combat between rounds from 2nd round on
repeat steps 1. thru 3. until Attacker decides to stop attacking
in step 1., if at least 5 SP were attacked on a Strategic Town or at least 10 SP were attacked in a stack, check Leader promotion/demotion (Campaign Simulation Game rule IV.)
Defender announces ONE hex he wishes to attack which was not already involved in combat this turn. Repeat steps 1. thru 5. with Defender as the new Attacker and Attacker as the new Defender (priority lists in step 2.G. are reset to "1)").
- EXCEPTION: may not initiate combat if either friendly or enemy units on hex are inside Forts or Entrenchments
repeat steps 1. thru 6. until both sides decide or are forced to stop attacking, then check Leader casualties (rule IV.C.)

B. Supply Units

EFFECT ON COMBAT or AE: if a Supply unit is not used, friendly SP are halved when attacking or defending (retain fractions)
- must be present on the same hex with friendly SP for them to attack or defend at full strength
- use is always optional
- only one can be used to support combat on any one hex per Combat Phase (even if multiple attacks occur)
- In combat (not AE), Supply used to support two or more rounds that turn is eliminated at end of the Combat Phase. If all friendly SP are eliminated, Supply used in only one round that turn is eliminated.
- if a player chooses not to use Supply in a combat round, he may choose to use it in a subsequent round without forcing its removal (if not used for two or more rounds)
CAPTURE: Supply on hex or outside Fort without friendly SP are instantly captured if hex has an enemy SP
- simply replace with friendly Supply
- at least 1 SP of the capturing force must accompany the Supply during Segment it is captured
- The winner may opt to destroy captured Supply. He simply removes them from the board in Segment of capture.
DESTRUCTION: players may destroy their Supply during their Movement Phase if enemy SP do not occupy the same hex
- EXCEPTION: inside Fort they may be destroyed even if enemy SP occupy hex

C. Magazine Units

BUILDING: Magazines may only be built on Town hexes (not outside Fort) free of enemy units
- 2Sup must start their Movement Phase on same Town hex. Remove them and place 1Mag on hex.
- may be used normally in the turn of their construction
EFFECT ON COMBAT: Magazines are similar to Supply but they are never consumed in combat
- may supply any number of multiple combats in different hexes in the same turn
- may supply all combat situations within a two-hex radius, limited by the following restrictions:
  - two-hex radius cannot cross class 3 hexsides
  - Two-hex radius cannot pass through an enemy-occupied hex to supply a combat in a second hex. In other words, there can't be enemy units on the intervening hex. Nor may there be enemy units on the hex that contains the Magazine (unless the friendly SP being supplied is on the same hex with, or adjacent to, the Magazine).
  - a besieged Magazine inside Fort (enemy SP on same hex) can't supply friendly SP on adjacent hexes and vice-versa
REDUCING: Magazines may never move. However, at start of a friendly Movement Phase, it may be reduced to 1Sup which may move about freely and supply combat normally on the same turn.
CAPTURE: Magazines on hex without friendly SP are instantly captured if hex has an enemy SP
- simply replace with friendly Magazine
- The winner may opt to destroy captured Magazines. He simply removes them from the board in Segment of capture.
DESTRUCTION: players may destroy their Magazines during their Movement Phase if enemy SP do not occupy the same hex
- EXCEPTION: inside Fort they may be destroyed even if enemy SP occupy hex

D. Forts

Units under a Fort counter are inside Fort. Units on top of it are outside Fort.

BUILDING: Forts are built only on Town hexes unoccupied by enemy units. Only one Fort may be built per such hex.
1. Must be 1Sup (or Magazine), 1Art, and 1SP of BR, CA or FR at the beginning of the turn on same hex. These units are removed and replaced with an inverted Fort counter at END of Combat Phase (any Entrenchment remains). The inverted counter does not function in any way as a Fort. If on a hex by itself with enemy SP, it is automatically removed.
2. In the next friendly Combat Phase, even if hex is enemy-occupied, the inverted Fort counter is flipped and used normally. If an Entrenchment is on hex it is removed. If a Magazine is on hex it may be placed outside Fort.
EFFECT ON MOVEMENT
- units entering hex with all enemy SP inside Fort may continue moving
- Units inside Fort with enemy SP outside may not leave hex. Instead they must stop outside Fort and end their movement. In the next turn they may move out of that hex normally.
- Units entering hex with friendly units inside Fort and enemy SP outside may not enter Fort in the same turn UNLESS they participate in an attack against the enemy SP. Units inside Fort are not required to participate in the attack but have the option of doing so. Friendly surviving units may immediately enter Fort.
- friendly units may move into or out of a besieged Fort (enemy SP on hex) by Bateau on class 3 hexsides only
EFFECT ON COMBAT: Forts double the SP of those inside Fort for defense only (casualties are evaluated normally)
- SP (not Supply) inside Fort attacking enemy units outside lose all defensive benefits and are placed outside Fort. They may not move back inside until conclusion of all combat in the hex.
- neither Tactical Cards nor retreats are used when attacking units inside Fort
- All effects of supply in combat apply to units inside Forts. Unsupplied SP inside Forts would be halved and then doubled, thereby maintaining their basic total when unsupplied inside Fort.
- if enemy SP are both inside and outside Fort, they must be attacked separately
  - all enemy SP outside Fort must be either eliminated or forced to retreat before attacking those inside
  - both groups may be attacked consecutively in the same turn
  - Both sides treat this as one continuous attack for supply purposes. However, casualty results against SP outside Fort do not affect SP inside Fort.
CAPTURE: Forts on hex without friendly SP are instantly captured if hex has enemy SP
- simply replace with friendly Fort
- the capturing units may immediately enter Fort
DESTRUCTION: Forts may be destroyed (dismantled) at END of the owning player's Movement Phase if there is at least one friendly SP also on hex. They may not be dismantled if there are enemy SP on hex. To dismantle Fort, remove it from the board.

E. Artillery Units

NOTE: Artillery has enhanced MP – British & French Artillery now have 7 MP, while American Artillery now has 8 MP

EFFECT ON COMBAT
- Artillery may only affect combat if they themselves are supplied for combat
  - EXCEPTION: unsupplied inside Fort, it may fire one round in combat – this means once per month
- gain –1 DRM for each Artillery unit defending inside Fort/Entrenchment or +1 for each unit attacking same
CAPTURE: Artillery on hex or outside Fort without friendly SP are instantly captured if hex has an enemy SP
- simply replace with friendly Artillery
- at least 1 SP of the capturing force must accompany the Artillery during Segment it is captured
- The winner may opt to destroy captured Artillery. He simply removes them from the board in Segment of capture.
DESTRUCTION: players may destroy their Artillery during their Movement Phase if enemy SP do not occupy the same hex
- EXCEPTION: inside Fort they may be destroyed even if enemy SP occupy hex

F. Militia and Indians

Whenever Militia and/or Indians of either side are involved in combat by themselves against BR, CA, or FR, they suffer a –1 DRM penalty (in addition to other DRMs) when attacking or defending.
- EXCEPTION: Militia-only force whose overall commander is Tarleton, Ferguson, Morgan or Arnold (as American) does not suffer the DRM
Indians with or without Leaders are Partisans (rule V.)
- EXCEPTION: Regular Leaders may lead Indians, but in that case the Indians cease being Partisans & may only move 8 MP

G. Elite Units

Elite units (Elites) named after Leaders must accompany that Leader always. If separated (not by death or capture), the Elite is eliminated and replaced with 1 SP of the matching color, one turn after separation.
units moving with Glover's MA reduce their cost of crossing each river (or using each ferry) by one MP
EFFECT ON COMBAT
- may not be used to attack in combat where the odds are greater than 2:1
- may only be used in ONE round, as an Elite, in a combat situation, otherwise it acts as a normal combat SP of one; if a player has more than one Elite present he may choose to employ them (one per round) in subsequent rounds
- gain +1 DRM in the combat round they are used
- orange & green Elites with or without Militia are treated as BR & CA

IV. Leaders

Leaders represent commanders who fought on both sides throughout the war. Adding them to the game has increased realism in several ways, such as controlling the number of troops, forced marches, and combat.

each Leader counter has the following information: Name, Rank, Seniority, Combat Rating, Max. SP per Round
all Leaders have a movement allowance of 10
- EXCEPTION: if accompanying a Dragoon for its entire turn, the movement allowance is 13
The highest-ranking Leader in a stack is the overall commander (2-star is higher than 1-star). Within rank, the lowest seniority number named Leader is highest ranked. Nameless Leaders & Knox outrank Partisan Leaders (rule V.).
- EXCEPTION: Leader E (not French) outranks 1 nameless Leader or 1 Partisan Leader (2 or more, he is subordinate)

A. Effect on Movement

if BR, CA, or FR move on land, or by mapboard ferry, without a Regular Leader in their stack, movement costs are DOUBLED
- the Leaders don't have to begin the Movement Phase stacked with a SP for the SP to pay normal movement costs, they may move about the board and any number of times pick up or drop off SP as they go
COMMAND: the number of SP that can be moved as a stack (lead) by a Leader is limited by his rank
- British 2-star leads 8 BR SP
- French 2-star leads any combination of 8 FR/CA
- British 1-star leads 4 BR SP but Rawdon if overall commander leads 6 BR SP
- French 1-star leads any combination of 4 FR/CA
- American 2-star leads 6 CA SP (not FR) but Washington leads 8 CA SP (not FR)
- American 1-star leads 3 CA SP (not FR) but Lafayette leads any combination of 3 CA/FR
- Partisan Leader leads 3 Partisans, no more than 2 of which can be Dragoons
- may be combined to lead a stack of SP
EXAMPLE: Two British 1-star generals on hex with 10BR, 2TM, 1BI, 1Art. and 1Sup. can lead only 8 SP at normal cost. The two remaining BR may move but at double movement cost. There is no effect on the TM, BI, Supply or Artillery.

B. Effect on Combat

At beginning of combat, both players determine their overall commander on hex. Those two combat ratings are subtracted to determine a DRM (in addition to other DRMs).
COMMAND: the SP controlled by a Leader in the Combat Phase is the same as he leads in movement except in addition to Regular SP, Militia/Dragoon/Indian SP are also counted and French Leaders cannot control SP other than FR
- a side with uncontrolled SP in the combat hex or no Leader suffers a –1 DRM penalty
- each round, the total amount of SP (controlled + uncontrolled) eligible for combat is limited by the following table
Overall Commander American British French
Washington or Howe no limit no limit —
2-star 24 32 24
Rawdon — 12 —
1-star named Regular 10 10 10
Leader E 6 8 —
none or nameless 3 4 4
Partisan 3 3 —
- When combining FR and American SP, the allies suffer –1 DRM in combat. The side with the most SP present has its highest-ranking Leader on hex as overall commander of the combined force (tied, use French).
  - EXCEPTIONS: 1) if Washington is on hex, he is overall commander without the –1 DRM; 2) if Lafayette is highest ranking allied general on hex, he is overall commander without the –1 DRM
Carleton: outside of Canada, his printed combat rating is lowered to +1
Knox: (the "A" means artillery) stacked with Artillery while attacking a Fort or Entrenchment, American gains an additional +1 DRM for first round of combat

Overall Commander	American	British	French
Washington or Howe	no limit	no limit	—
2-star	24	32	24
Rawdon	—	12	—
1-star named Regular	10	10	10
Leader E	6	8	—
none or nameless	3	4	4
Partisan	3	3	—

C. Casualties and Capture

Optional rule VI.A. (Leader Casualty Check) is mandatory in Scenarios 2, 7 and CSGs 1, 2, 3, 4, 6.

MOVEMENT PHASE: Leader in hex or outside Fort without friendly SP is instantly captured if hex has an enemy SP
- named Leaders may be voluntarily removed from the game by their owner – treat them as killed (last bullet below)
COMBAT PHASE: after last round of each combat (not NE result in 1st round), for both forces' SP
- if any survive, roll 2 dice for each named Leader & Leader E in that force: 2-10 no effect, 11 wounded, 12 killed
- if none left, nameless Ldrs. in that force are removed to Turn-Track & placed at start of next turn on a friendly-occupied hex
- if none left (not inside Fort), roll one die for each named Leader & Leader E in that force: 1-3 retreats to nearest friendly-occupied hex, 4 captured, 5 wounded, 6 killed
- if none left inside Fort, roll one die for each named Leader & Leader E in that force: 1 escapes to nearest friendly-occupied hex, 2-5 captured, 6 killed
Captured Leaders are removed from the board. They are exchanged at end of each Interphase in CSG Scenarios and beginning of each turn in AG Scenarios. Prisoner exchange is mandatory and is on a one-to-one basis – ranking Leaders first.
- EXCEPTIONS: 1) Tarleton, Arnold (as British), and all Partisan Leaders are permanently removed from play (hanged); 2) Leaders E and nameless Leaders are placed at start of next turn on any friendly-occupied hex(es)
Wounded Leaders are removed from the board. Roll one die for each one to see how many friendly turns (half-turns) he must wait to recover. At start of next friendly turn, place Leader on friendly-occupied hex.
killed Leaders are permanently removed from the game and replaced by a nameless Leader (if none, players make their own)
- EXCEPTIONS: 1) Knox, Lafayette, and all Partisan Leaders are never replaced; 2) if no friendly SP left, any replacement is placed at start of next turn on friendly-occupied hex

V. Partisans

On each side of the Revolutionary War there emerged a special kind of leader who possessed the characteristics to effectively lead irregular forces against enemy Regulars. Francis Marion, the Swamp Fox, is one example.

orange & green Leaders are Partisan Leaders & may only lead Militia/Dragoon SP – such SP are Partisans
- EXCEPTIONS: 1) Ferguson may lead 4 BR as a Regular (not Partisan) Leader; 2) Indians with or without a Leader are Partisans
Sumter/Warner outrank Marion/Stark, British order of rank: 1 Watson, 2 Ferguson, 3 Johnson, 4 Brant

A. Effect on Movement

Partisans (not Dragoons) have a movement allowance of 10
Partisan Leaders (not Ferguson) are confined to the jurisdiction they start the game in. North is Middle States & New England (also Canada until 1777), South is Deep South & South Central. They and their Partisans are eliminated if outside jurisdiction.
Marion: may lead units (or move) through ONE swamp hex each turn at the cost of one MP (not two)
Sumter: prohibited from ending consecutive turns stacked with the same Leader

B. Effect on Combat

RETREAT: if enemy force begins its Combat Phase on hex with friendly Partisans & no friendly Regulars (SP or Leaders), the entire Partisan force may try to retreat together by rolling one die: 1-4 no effect, 5-6 retreats same as rule III.A.2.H.
Brant: only controls TM/TD and/or Butler'sRang if stacked w/BI at start of combat (BI killed that combat doesn't cancel control)

VI. Optional Rules

A. Leader Casualty Check

This method works best in games that contain a great number of SP. It is mandatory in Scenarios 2, 7 and CSGs 1, 2, 3, 4, 6.

Casualty Die Roll (CDR): 1-3 no effect, 4 captured, 5 wounded, 6 killed
- EXCEPTIONS: 1) no SP left and outside Fort, 1-3 retreat to nearest friendly-occupied hex, 4 captured, 5 wounded, 6 killed; 2) no SP left and inside Fort, 1 escape to nearest friendly-occupied hex, 2-5 captured, 6 killed

COMBAT PHASE: after the last round of each combat (not NE result in 1st round),

if a player has no SP left on hex,
- all friendly nameless Leaders (not Leader E) on hex are removed to Turn-Track & placed at start of next turn on friendly-occupied hexes in any combination
- each named Leader & Leader E on hex must undergo a CDR
if a player lost SP but SP remain on hex, roll 2 dice & add result to friendly SP lost
- if total is 13 or more, each friendly 1-star named Leader & Leader E on hex must undergo a CDR
- if total is 14 or more, each friendly 2-star Leader on hex (not overall commander) must undergo a CDR

B. Inverted/Decoy Counters

This rule simulates the lack of precise information available to each side on the strength and disposition of opposing forces.

Only CA & Militia/Dragoon/Indian SP can be used inverted. All other types must move and function face up.
all inverted counters (including Dragoons) have a maximum movement allowance of 8
Inverting counters is done at a player's option. Dragoon SP must be turned face up to move at their full movement allowance.
inverted counters remain inverted until entering hex occupied by enemy SP, or enemy SP enter their hex
- Both sides immediately flip their SP on the mutually occupied hex. They cannot be inverted again until they begin their Movement Phase on hex unoccupied by enemy SP.
DECOY COUNTERS: May only be used when noted in scenario Set-Up. They move in the same manner as real SP except:
- may never move into hexes occupied by enemy units
- If land-unit enters hex occupied by enemy Decoy Counter, that Decoy is immediately placed on the nearest hex (unoccupied by enemy units) containing friendly units. It may be turned over and moved normally in the next Movement Phase.

Campaign Simulation Game

The Campaign Simulation Game (CSG) provides the framework for recreating the entire Revolutionary War starting in January 1776. Since the course of the CSG will vary from its historical counterpart, most of the additional rules are devoted to establishing a resource allocation system responsive to the military situation present on the map at any one time. The full impact of British sea power and the unpredictability of French military intervention in the war are strikingly represented in the CSG.

NOTE: ALL PREVIOUS RULES ARE ALSO IN FORCE

CSG I. Strategic Areas and Towns

The 13 colonies are divided into four sections called Strategic Areas for the purposes of allocating SP (CA, RM, and TM) and American Supplies. Certain key Town hexes called Strategic Towns are the reference points in determining which side controls an Area and hence determine the number of SP available in that Area at the beginning of each quarter.

CONTROL: Only the British can control a Town, Strategic Town, Strategic Area or Halifax. Occupation must be by debarked SPs. Towns and Halifax are controlled by occupying with 1TM or 1BR.

A. Strategic Towns

A Strategic Town is controlled for Area status (only) by occupying it (regardless of enemy SP) with the following BR. For all other purposes it is controlled by occupation with 1BR (if Fort, the required garrison must be inside).

TOWN	BR NEEDED
Boston	4
Newport	3
New York	6
Philadelphia	4
Charleston	2
All others	1

B. Strategic Areas

British control an Area by controlling all Strategic Towns in that Area (listed in following table).

EXCEPTION: control of New England and/or Middle States also requires control of Montreal & Quebec (similar to Strategic Town)

New England	Middle States	South Central	Deep South
Boston	Ticonderoga	Alexandria	Hillsboro
Newport	Ft. Stanwix	Charlottesville	Wilmington
Springfield	Albany	Richmond	Camden
Hartford	Wyoming	Petersburg	Charleston
Norwich	New York	Norfolk	Ninety-Six
	Philadelphia		Augusta
			Savannah

C. Indian Villages

Indian Villages are Owego, Painted Post and Unadilla.

Forts and Magazines may not be built on the three Indian Villages
a player may not move units into an Indian Village until the enemy moves a BI or AI out of that Village or moves a Regular/Militia SP of any kind (not Leaders) into that Village

CSG II. Seasonal Interphase

CLARIFICATION: the Canada/Middle States border follows hexsides of divided hexes by the rule "containing more than 50% of the area", then continues along the St. Lawrence River to the western map edge

PROCEDURE: at end of each March, June, September and December turn, the following Interphase steps are performed

WINTER: total CA+CA Elite SP are reduced depending on location per the following table (fractions round down)

CA WINTER REDUCTION RATES — AREA STATUS	1776	1777	1778	1779
NO Strategic Towns controlled	25%	25%	0%	25%
some Strategic Towns controlled	50%	50%	25%	50%
controlled Area	100%	75%	50%	75%
total: Canada + West Indies + at sea	75%	75%	75%	50%

SPRING and FALL: each player rolls 2 dice & looks up result in Random Events Table. Results are applied in step 14.

RANDOM EVENTS TABLE

DR	BRITISH	AMERICAN
2	Increased Effort to End War at Home: enter 2BR on one controlled Port	Spain Invades Georgia: enter 2 SP and a nameless 1-star Leader on one hex within 3 hexes of Savannah (use French counters)
3	Additional Supply from England: enter 1 Supply on controlled Port	Improved Dragoon Training: replace 1RM with 1RD at no cost
4	Successful Attempt to Gain Indian Allies: enter 1BI on Montreal	France Increases Support: enter 1 American or French Supply on an uncontrolled Port
5	Successful Recruitment of TM: enter 2TM, one each on North and South map portions	Congress Raises Bounty for CA: enter 2CA on uncontrolled Town nearest largest American force
6-8	No Effect	No Effect
9	Tories Fear Reprisals: remove 2TM, one each from North and South map portions	Locals Fear Reprisals: remove 2RM, one each from North and South map portions
10	Storms Appear: next month, Fleets in Ports or entering Ports must remain there for the turn	Royal Navy Interrupts French Aid: remove 1 American or French Supp anywhere on the board
11	Scandal in Admiralty: only 1 Supply this turn	French Monarch Loses Interest: remove Fleet A for next month reappearing on an OBM Transit. Box
12	War Rumors in Europe: deduct 2BR from British reinforcements	Local Governors Discourage Enlistments: deduct 2CA from American reinforcements

all Leaders' combat ratings are reset to their printed value plus any Promotions
on land hexes in each Area plus Canada, each side's highest ranked Leader must be stacked with the largest number of SP
- if not, reduce both his and the "Leader stacked with the most (or equal number of) SP" combat ratings by one (–1)
  - EXCEPTION: combat ratings of 0 are not reduced
after 1776, each SPRING: if Middle States Area is uncontrolled, American rolls a die: 1-2 enter (or rebuild) the AI unit on Unadilla or, if green-striped BI (British ally) is on mapboard, replace it with AI unit, 3-6 remove it from the board
WINTER: if AI unit is on mapboard, replace it with green-striped BI unit placed at Unadilla
after 1778, each SPRING:
- both players may rebuild one lost Elite (not if its Leader is captured or eliminated)
  - replaces 1 SP of the same color anywhere on the board
  - A wounded Leader's Elite can be rebuilt however, the Elite can't be placed on the board until the Leader returns to the board. Place the rebuilt Elite with its Leader on the Time Record Card to appear with him when he returns.
- British may replace one BI lost anywhere with 1BI at Oswego or Montreal

Check Area Status Chart (ASC) and adjust Status Indicator counters on the Rate Charts for each Area (located on the board). BR and CA in Canada/West Indies and units embarked on Fleets are NOT in an Area.

AREA STATUS CHART

AREA STATUS	CA	RM	TM
NO BR in Area	Maximum	Minimum	Maximum
NO Strategic Towns controlled, NO CA in Area	Maximum	Average	Average
some Strategic Towns controlled, NO CA in Area	Minimum	Average	Minimum
NO Strategic Towns controlled, CA in Area	Average	Maximum	Average
some Strategic Towns controlled, CA in Area	Average	Average	Average
controlled	NONE	Minimum*	Minimum

* if lower than the allowable level, can't be increased to that level

EXAMPLE: At the beginning of the April 1776 turn, BR control Charleston in the Deep South Area; CA are also in that Area. Consulting the ASC shows this to be a status which provides the following rates: CA-Average, RM-Average, and TM-Average. Consulting the Rate Chart for the Deep South yields the following number of SP: CA-1, RM-8, TM-5.

each player adjusts his Militia levels and enters his new arrivals
- the CA Rate Chart value is the number of CA reinforcement SP available for the Area
- the Militia Rate Chart value is the number of Militia + Elite Militia + Partisan SPs that can be in the Area at start of a season
  - if Militia SP are below the allowed level, additional Militia SP are brought in to bring the number up to that level
  - if Militia SP exceed the allowed level, all in excess must be removed from the board
  - Militia in Canada (includes Halifax) are always totaled with those in the Middle States Area. Excess Militia SP may be removed from either Canada or Middle States Area; however, arriving SP must be placed in the Middle States Area.
  - Militia in the West Indies are always totaled with those in the Deep South Area. Excess Militia SP may be removed from either West Indies or Deep South Area; however, arriving SP must be placed in the Deep South Area.
- all units scheduled for arrival must be entered as soon as they become available or they are lost
- unless noted in the following PROCEDURE, units scheduled for arrival may be placed on enemy-occupied hexes and may be split up and placed in any combination
- if friendly besieged Fort on entry hex, new units must be entered outside Fort
  - EXCEPTION: may enter inside Fort if entry hex is a Port that is not blockaded (enemy Fleet on port-entry hexside)
PROCEDURE:
1. adjust RM+RD SP per Rate Chart placing new SP in any combination on or within 1 hex of uncontrolled Strategic Towns
  - if uncontrolled Area has all Strategic Towns controlled, place them on adjacent hexes of Strategic Towns
  - RD may replace new or existing RM at the following rate: number of RM on the Rate Chart divided by 4 (round up)
    - if number of RD exceeds this level at start of the Interphase, eliminate or replace them to the proper level
    - EXAMPLE: for 1-4 on a Rate Chart, 1RD may replace 1RM. For 5-8 on the chart, 2RD may replace 2RM, etc.
2. enter CA reinforcements per Rate Chart in the same manner as RM
3. adjust TM+TD SP per Rate Chart placing new SP in any combination on controlled Strategic Towns
  - if no controlled Strategic Towns are in the Area, place them on Strategic Towns unoccupied by enemy units
    - if all Strategic Towns are enemy-occupied, place them on adjacent hexes of Strategic Towns
  - TD may replace new or existing TM in the same manner as RD and are adjusted in the same manner as RD
4. SPRING: enter 1 American Supply to each uncontrolled Area in the same manner as RM. SUMMER: enter 1 American Supply to each Area with no controlled Strategic Towns in same manner as RM
5. beginning WINTER 1777:
  - enter 2BR on one controlled Port and 2BR on New York (city) if controlled
  - WINTER: enter 1BR on Charleston if controlled and 1BR on Philadelphia if controlled
  - SPRING, SUMMER and FALL: enter 2 British Supplies on one controlled Port: Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Charleston or Quebec
after French Intervention, roll to call up Variable Forces (rule V.E.) including any damaged Fleets
after French Intervention, roll to remove Variable Forces (rule V.E.) including any damaged Fleets
if both sides have captured Leaders, they are exchanged on a one-to-one basis (ignore rank), each side's ranking Leaders first
- place exchanged Leaders on the Turn-Track at the current Interphase space
both players may Transfer Leaders – British does all his Transfers first, then American does all his
- If named Leaders are on Turn-Track at the current Interphase space, you may enter them in any combination to hexes occupied by friendly SP – American may enter his on uncontrolled Towns instead
- one named Leader on the mapboard may be placed on the Turn-Track at the next Interphase
- one nameless Leader on the mapboard may be moved to hex occupied by friendly SP – American may move his to an uncontrolled Town instead
SPRING and FALL: each player applies Random Event rolled in step 2. – American goes first

CSG III. Indian Reinforcements

first time all Strategic Towns in a Deep South COLONY are controlled, enter 1BI on J5 at start of next British turn
first time Deep South AREA is controlled, enter 1BI on R9 at start of next British turn

CSG IV. Promotion

in a single Combat Phase, if a named Leader with a combat rating of 0 or +1 (not already promoted) is overall commander while achieving any of the following, he may add +1 to his combat rating
- attacks at least 5 SP on a Strategic Town on 2-1 or less CRT column and destroys them or causes retreat
- defends against at least 5 SP on a Strategic Town (any odds) and survives without retreating
- attacks at least 10 SP on 3-2 or less CRT column and destroys them
promoted Leaders are demoted to original combat rating by failing to succeed as overall commander in any of the actions above

CSG V. Sea Power

The following rules recreate the critical aspects of naval and amphibious operations. In addition to onboard capabilities of maneuver and combat, these rules also include off-board operations reflecting influences outside the immediate North American sphere.

Fleets on class 2 rivers prevent enemy land-units from crossing at that hexside
each Fleet (BF, TF, CN, VF) has the following information on it: ID Letter, Naval Combat SPs, Hexside Movement Indicator, Transport Capacity, Type Symbol, Movement Allowance

A. Naval Movement

Movement of Fleets is executed in their Movement Phase in the same manner as land movement.

ON-BOARD MOVEMENT: on-board movement is a combination of the following types
- RIVER AND CLASS 3 HEXSIDES: Fleets may move along river or class 3 hexsides at a cost of one movement point per hexside in the same manner as Bateaux with these limitations:
  - NONE may move along class 1 rivers. Only TF and the CN may move along class 2 rivers.
  - movement through hexes that contain land (not yellow islands) is prohibited
  - may enter hexside occupied by enemy Fleets, but must stop there
  - do not have to stop for enemy SP on land or enemy Bateaux
  - TF on class 2 rivers must stop if entering a hexside adjacent to enemy Fort containing supplied Artillery
- SEA-LANE HEXES: Fleets expend one movement point per sea-lane hex entered
  - units on sea-lane hexes may move to any class 3 hexside that is directly connected to that hex and vice-versa
  - must stop when entering a sea-lane hex occupied by enemy Fleets
- PORT HEXES: Fleets may enter or leave port-hexes (Ports) at no cost in MP
  - only enter or leave a Port by moving through the port-entry hexside indicated by the arrowhead symbol
  - Fleets on the port-hex indicate they are in the Port and any on adjacent hexsides are outside the Port
  - each Port holds an unlimited number of Fleets
  - enemy Fleets may not enter a Port occupied by friendly Fleets
  - Fleets in a Port containing enemy SP but no friendly SP are instantly placed on the port-entry hexside unless they immediately debark a SP
OFF-BOARD MOVEMENT: There are three sea-lane exits marked NORTH, EAST, and SOUTH. Whenever Fleets leave the map via these exits they are placed on the Off-Board Movement (OBM) Chart as outlined below. Fleets must have at least one MP remaining after entering the edge-most sea-lane hex to move off the map.
- NORTH Exit
  - British BF and TF have the option of moving to the NORTH box or to the HALIFAX box
    - HALIFAX represents the British naval base (Port) at Halifax, Nova Scotia. Only British units may use this box. If entering or leaving via the NORTH exit, the cost to debark or embark is the same as a Port.
  - French BF and the CN must always move to the NORTH box
  - Fleets intending to move to the St. Lawrence River must enter either the NORTH or HALIFAX (if British) boxes. In their next Movement Phase, these Fleets appear on the first class 3 river hexside at a cost of one MP.
- EAST Exit: Fleets are placed on the EAST box of the OBM Chart
- SOUTH Exit: Fleets are placed on the SOUTH box of the OBM Chart
- within the OBM Chart: Fleets may move from one box to another (once per turn) if they are joined by double-headed arrows
  - entering/leaving the Halifax box via the NORTH box, there is no cost to debark/embark
  - Transitional Boxes marked "FR" are sources of French Supply. French BF beginning their turn on such a box may embark 1Sup if they do not leave the box that Movement Phase.
  - WEST INDIES: The West Indies boxes are Ports for both French and British forces (each restricted to side that owns it). There is never any cost to embark/debark.
- Fleets may re-enter the map only if they begin their Movement Phase on the SOUTH, EAST, NORTH or HALIFAX boxes. They are placed on the first sea-lane hex of the appropriate exit at a cost of one MP and may continue moving from there.

B. Naval Transport

Fleets may transport certain land-units during their Movement Phase.

British may transport Leaders, BR, TM, TD, Artillery and Supply by ship via British BF and TF
American may transport Leaders, FR, CA, Artillery and Supply by ship via French BF and Supply/Artillery in the West Indies via the CN (rule V.F. WEST INDIES OPERATION)
TM and named Leaders at sea (sea-lane hex or OBM Chart) without Regular SP at the start of a season are automatically eliminated (treat Leaders as killed).
the land-units must begin their Movement Phase on either a Port (including West Indies and Halifax) or a hex adjacent to a class 2 or 3 hexside
May be debarked onto either a port-hex or a hex adjacent to a class 2 or 3 hexside, or the West Indies (not Militia) or Halifax boxes. Onto a port-hex is only allowed by entering the Port.

Fleets must begin the Movement Phase in a Port with or hexside adjacent to the land-units to be transported

Land-units are signified as embarked by being placed directly underneath the transporting Fleet. If stacked with other Fleets, passengers must be kept separate. Transferring directly between Fleets is prohibited.
The Transport Capacity located in the upper right corner of the Fleet indicates the maximum number of units that a Fleet can transport at one time. Capacity cost is determined by the same method as used for Bateaux.

embarking/debarking operations invoke MP penalties for both Fleets and land-units

TYPE	FLEET COST	LAND-UNIT COST
Fleet in Port	5 MP	may move only 1/2 MP (round down) upon debarking (0 MP)
Fleet on class 2/3 river or class 3 bay/lake or port-entry hexside	10 MP	may not move when debarked
Fleet on class 3 coastal hexside	15 MP	may not move when debarked
Fleet debarking onto hex occupied by enemy SP	5 MP + cost listed above	may not move when debarked

Fleets can't debark land-units if they do not have enough MP left to accomplish the operation as outlined above
a land-unit may only embark once per turn
each individual stack of land-units debarked invokes MP penalties for both the Fleet and the stack
Fleets (not the CN) may act as ferries (rule II.B. AS FERRY) across class 2 or 3 hexsides. They may also embark/debark land-units in the same turn but can't move.
Fleets on the move (not stationary) can't debark land-units if they enter hexside with an enemy Fleet
if a Fort is besieged, land-units can only embark-from/debark-to the inside if the transporting Fleet is in a Port

C. Naval Combat

Fleets in their Combat Phase may attack enemy Fleets.

must occupy the same sea-lane hex or class 3 hexside and may not be in the OBM Chart
never forced to attack, but if attacked, must defend
may not attack Bateaux and vice versa
unescorted TF may never attack – if attacked, they are automatically sunk
- EXCEPTION: when TF are attacked by the CN the result is not automatic, but is resolved using the "0" column on the FEC

PROCEDURE:

all naval SP of the Attacker are compared to all naval SP of the Defender and the DIFFERENCE (not odds ratio) between their strengths is located on the Fleet Engagement Chart (FEC)
one die is rolled and cross-indexed with the strength difference to obtain the result of the engagement
attacks less than –1 are not allowed; attacks greater than +4 are treated as +4
Result is applied immediately. Damaged Fleets are removed from the board immediately (along with any land-units onboard). Previously damaged Fleets reappear with their cargo on any of the three Transitional Boxes on the OBM chart after the proper number of quarters has elapsed. Fleets sunk are permanently removed from the game (along with any land-units onboard).
- CLARIFICATION: D-1 = 3 months, D-2 = 6 months (ex: a Fleet suffering D-1 in March reappears at start of friendly turn in June)
result of combat applies to all the Fleets of the side in question located on that hex

D. Naval Bombardment

Coastal Forts & Entrenchments under attack by land forces may also be bombarded by adjacent BF and/or BF in target's Port.

Fleets that debarked land-units can bombard in same turn
+1 DRM for each bombarding Fleet

PROCEDURE:

at the very start of each round, Attacker announces which Fleets will attempt to bombard
if defending force has supplied Artillery, Defender announces how he will inflict damage in the combat
- AL1, AE or 1/2AE results must be inflicted entirely on either land or naval forces
- AL2 result may be split between land and naval forces or inflicted entirely on one or the other
Attacker rolls one die for each bombarding Fleet: 1-4 the Fleet may bombard, 5-6 it may not
If any Fleets are damaged, a die roll is immediately made for each one. The number rolled is the number of QUARTERS (3 months) it is out of play. There is a strong chance that a Fleet would never see action again in a scenario, especially in a short or medium length scenario, therefore discretion is recommended in using Naval Bombardment.

E. Fleet Availability and Order of Appearance

Unless noted otherwise in scenario rules, British and French naval forces are grouped into two groups regarding their availability:

ON STATION: units that are always available, barring combat damage
- British: available at start of game or as reinforcements – 2BF and 2TF
- French: available in, or after, the turn of French intervention – 2BF (rule VII.B. ORDER OF BATTLE)
VARIABLE FORCES (VF): forces stationed in other areas called upon for limited duty in the North American sphere
- British VF are BF-VF1, BF-VF2 and TF-VF
- French VF are BF-VF carrying Ldr.B, Ldr.C, 5FR, 1Art, 1Sup initially, then 1Sup each additional appearance
- After French intervention, both sides may attempt to call up their own VF during each seasonal Interphase – British first. One die is rolled for EACH Fleet called upon: 5-6 that Fleet is available for the season.
- Arriving VF must be placed on OBM Transitional Boxes – British first. British VF are placed in any combination.
- each VF already called up at the beginning of a new season may remain in play on a die roll of 4-6 (each roll separately)
  - VF unable to remain in play are immediately removed from the map
  - Land-units onboard a VF Fleet unable to remain on the mapboard are removed with that Fleet. They may be brought back into play in a subsequent quarter

F. Continental Navy

The American Continental Navy existed, in one form or another, from the fall of 1775 to the end of the war. Organized squadrons, however, operated only through the middle of 1777. The following rules abstractly represent this. The CN unit also represents state navy ships used throughout the war.

has no transport capacity (unless conducting the WEST INDIES OPERATION) and cannot act as a ferry
has zero (0) combat SP; may not attack BF, only unescorted TFs but does not automatically sink them, it must attack them under the 0 column on the FEC instead
if damaged, it must spend the required number of quarters in an uncontrolled American Port (not West Indies) or it is eliminated
must end its Movement Phase in an uncontrolled American Port (not West Indies) at least once every 6 turns or it is eliminated
remains in the game indefinitely or until it is SUNK by the British
WEST INDIES OPERATION: the CN may sail to the West Indies box and attempt to pick up Supply and/or Artillery
- Each turn starting on the West Indies box, American rolls one die: 1-3 he instantly embarks 1Sup or 1Art, 4 he instantly embarks 2Sup or 2Art or one of each. If British BF are also on the box, add one (+1) for each Fleet to the die roll.
- the maximum it may carry is two units
- each time it enters, it must leave the West Indies on the first or second turn after its arrival
- Must transport these units back to the colonies. Once debarked, it may not transport the unit(s) again.
- British may send any number of BF to the West Indies to seek and destroy the CN. Both in the turn they arrive & (if CN remains) the following turn, British rolls one die: 1-3 they find the CN and naval combat commences.

CSG VI. Winter Turns

During winter turns (Jan., Feb., Mar.), restrictions are placed on both combat and movement.

MOVEMENT: Middle States (and border hexsides), New England, and Canada
- Land-units and Leaders beginning the Movement Phase in these Areas or debarking on Ports in these Areas have their MP allowance halved (rounded down). Any debarking on Ports are halved again (rounded down).
- Bateaux, TF and the CN may not move or transport land-units on class 1, 2, or 3 river or lake hexsides. However, they may embark/debark land-units, move on class 3 bay or coastal hexsides, and act as ferries normally.
  - CLARIFICATION: The last northern river frozen hexsides are: Susquehanna OO28/PP29, Delaware OO33/PP33, Hudson WW37/XX38, Connecticut BBB42/CCC43, St. Croix YYY56/ZZZ57. There are no bay hexsides on the St. Lawrence River.
- Forced Marches are not allowed (including into or out of Middle States)
MOVEMENT: Deep South and South Central (and border hexsides): class 2 rivers are only crossed by ferry
MOVEMENT: all Areas and Canada: no Automatic Elimination is allowed
COMBAT
- No unsupplied attacks are allowed. SP may still defend unsupplied, however, at half strength.
- combat is limited to TWO rounds per hex per Combat Phase

CSG VII. French Intervention

A. Uncertain Entry

Starting April '78, the American rolls one die at the VERY start of each turn until he rolls a number permitting French entry according to the chart below (for each controlled Area at the beginning of a season, the die roll is modified with +1 DRM):

TURN	NUMBER NEEDED
April/78	1
May/78	1
June/78	1, 2
July/78	1, 2, 3
August/78	1, 2, 3
Sept./78	1, 2, 3
Oct./78 and beyond	1, 2, 3, 4

B. Order of Battle

when French forces intervene, they have available the following French BFs and accompanying French forces:
- BF-A – D'Estaing, 4FR, 1Lt.Inf., 1Art, 1Sup
- BF-B – Rochambeau, Ldr.A, 4FR, 1Lt.Inf., 1Art, 1Sup
- 1Sup on the French West Indies box
- BF-VF – Ldr.B, Ldr.C, 5FR, 1Art, 1Sup initially, then 1Sup each additional appearance (rule V.E.)
- CLARIFICATION: Allow these Fleets to temporarily violate transport capacities until initial debarking. Overloaded, they may not enter an uncontrolled Port without enough MPs to debark. Once they do, they must immediately debark to within capacities.
The American places the BF-A and BF-B on the board in, or any turn after, the turn of French intervention. At start of the American Segment, these BF are placed stacked together on the first row of hexes in either the South or East sea exits, or on the West Indies OBM Chart box.
- placed on the West Indies, they can embark the 1Sup but first the BF must debark at least 3 capacity points of units

C. Deployment

French land forces may operate independently of the BF transporting them
when engaged in combat, American/French Supply may be used interchangeably
When building or reducing a Magazine, the same nationality must be retained. If building a Magazine from both nationalities, the American may choose which one will be created.
Whenever a BF begins its turn on an OBM Chart box marked "FR," it may embark 1Sup (if not already loaded to capacity) if there is a French Supply available. It may not move for that turn.

D. West Indies Commitment

The British and French navies made serious commitments to the vital West Indies area. The following rules reflect this. After French Intervention, the British must match whatever forces the French commit to the West Indies OBM Chart box.

whenever French BF or FR move (or Withdraw) into the West Indies box, the British must send an equal number of BF and BR into the West Indies box by the route that requires the fewest Movement Phases to move, embark and transport them
- if French BF are initially placed on the West Indies, the British only have to match BF and FR that debarked
1. at start of his Movement Phase the British calculates the minimum number of turns required
  - must assume all enemy forces will not move or attack
  - must allow for delays caused by entering enemy-occupied hexes or hexsides
  - if quicker, he must move through enemy units instead of around them
2. at end of his Movement Phase that number of turns must be lower than in step 1.
all forces on both sides (not TF) sent to the West Indies are required to remain there until the 3rd turn after arrival
- if French BF are initially placed on the West Indies, only BF and FR that debarked must remain
The British are required to maintain matching forces in the West Indies for as long as French forces remain there. However, if all French BF move out of the West Indies, the British are relieved of the matching obligation until the French commit again.
Matching of naval forces is executed in terms of Fleet counters, not naval combat SP. Matching of land forces is in terms of combat SP. Ignore Artillery and Supply for this determination.

EXAMPLE: One French BF carrying 5FR enters the West Indies box in June 1779. There is already 1BR in the box. The British player must respond by sending 1BF and 1TF carrying 4BR, which arrives in July. The French forces may leave the West Indies in September turn. The British TF may leave in August, but the 1BF and the 5BR must remain until October.

E. Withdrawal

If, due to combat, one or more French BF are ever sunk, ALL FR and French Artillery in North America must be transported to the West Indies and debarked there using the remaining BF.

They must attempt to move, embark and transport them by the most direct route possible in the same manner as the British sending matching forces to the West Indies. Failure to do this results in the immediate elimination of all FR, Artillery and BF.
if no French BF are on the board, all FR & French Artillery in North America are eliminated at end of the current Segment
any arriving Fleets (BF-VF or repaired BF) with embarked units are immediately placed on the southernmost OBM Transitional box and must move to the West Indies box as quickly as possible
once all the FR and Artillery in North America have been debarked, French BF are free to operate normally

CSG VIII. Optional Rules

The following optional rules add new options, or slightly change some of the mechanics of the Campaign Game rules. Players should use them with discretion, as some may alter the course of play from what players are used to in the earlier editions.

A. Intrinsic Artillery in Forts

A Fort has an intrinsic value of 1Art that gives defending force –1 DRM (in addition to other DRMs) for first round of combat. If supply is used, the DRM may be applied for all rounds of combat.
When dismantling a Fort, the player has the option of taking the intrinsic Artillery with him. He dismantles Fort and places 1Art on the same hex. The Artillery may move the turn after Fort is dismantled.

B. Supply Movement

This rule greatly effects the movement of armies on the board. Historically, Revolutionary armies tended to stay within established paths most of the time. Moving supply trains in the wilderness was a laborious endeavor.

NOTE: Use of this rule should be limited to the Campaign Game but Players may experiment with it in some of the Advanced Game scenarios. Some scenarios will not work well with it; for example, the revised Tory and Indian War.

Supply moving into a clear hex without a Town costs 2 MP & into a swamp hex costs 4 MP

C. French Intervention and Forces

French military assistance was slow in materializing. A treaty of alliance was signed with the United States in February 1778, but actual military forces were not available until July of that year. As helpful as these seemed, they were only available for the season, sailing back to the West Indies before winter. A permanent army under Rochambeau made its arrival July 1780. Finally, the Americans were able to really hit back at the British, and the stage was set for Yorktown. The optional rules simulate these facts and force the American player to use the French in a historical manner.

Use of these rules requires the Campaign Game Time Record Chart to include an extra year, 1781.

SEASONAL: the following French forces are available short-term for the American player
- August 1778: BF-A and BF-B, each carrying 3FR, 1Lt.Inf., 1Art, 1Sup, plus D'Estaing and Ldr.A are all placed on the EAST OBM box at start of American turn. These must be removed from the map at end of the November turn.
- August 1779: BF-A and BF-B, each carrying 3FR, 1Lt.Inf., 1Art, 1Sup, plus D'Estaing and Ldr.B are all placed on the SOUTH OBM box at start of American turn. These must be removed from the map at end of the November turn.
- August 1781: BF-VF carrying Ldr.C, 3FR, 1Lt.Inf., 1Art, 1Sup is placed on the SOUTH OBM box at start of American turn. These must be removed from the map at end of the November turn.
- if any Seasonal Fleet is sunk, ALL remaining Seasonal forces must be immediately removed from the map
PERMANENT: the following French forces are permanent forces
- July 1780: BF-A and BF-B carrying a TOTAL of 8FR, 1Lt.Inf., 2Art, 1Sup, Rochambeau and Ldrs. A & B are all placed on the EAST OBM box at start of American turn
- May 1781: 2Sup are placed at a French-occupied Port (not West Indies)
- French may receive additional French Supply on the Transitional boxes labeled "FR" (see normal rules)
French Intervention must be rolled for normally. For every turn the French do not intervene, the August 1778 Seasonal forces are delayed a turn. This continues up to the November 1778 turn. If the French do not intervene by then, these French forces are unavailable. The same applies to the August 1779 Seasonal forces if intervention has not yet occurred.
under rule VII.D. WEST INDIES COMMITMENT, the British must still match anything the French place there
use the 1779 column of the CA Winter Reduction Rates chart for the winter 1780 turn
continue British and American reinforcements/replacements throughout the year 1781
eliminate end of game (Dec. '80) victory conditions and use them at revised end of game (Dec. '81) instead

Scenarios

It was once said the scenarios "simply don't do justice to the game; most are silly." Over time this criticism has lost its punch; today, the scenarios are played more than the longer campaign games. Consequently, additional scenarios have been developed since 1776's initial release, and revisions of the originals have made the scenarios the most appealing part of the system. Here is a COMPLETE description of every scenario. These rules are official, being the final form in their development.

Scenarios I. Rules for All Scenarios

REINFORCEMENT/TURN RECORD TRACK (Turn-Track): provides information as to which side moves first in each turn, length of game, reinforcement composition, location, turn-of-entry, and the passage of time – use Time Now counters to keep track of elapsed game turns directly on the Turn-Track
AREA OF PLAY: units leaving the area of play are permanently out of the game
SET-UP: Optional – substitute one Leader E (or both) for any other nameless Leader(s).
CONTROL = (unless noted) occupy with SP either free of enemy SP or inside Fort (ignore Entrenchments)
REINFORCEMENTS: (unless noted),
- enter immediately at start of friendly turn or they are lost
- enter ALL on ONE hex
- do not spend 1 MP to enter
- priority when entering the game:
  1. entry hex enemy-occupied, enter on adjacent hex free of enemy units
  2. entry hex surrounded by enemy units, enter on hex 2 hexes from entry hex & free of enemy units
  3. if still unable, enter on hex adjacent to entry hex & cannot move this turn
COM COUNTERS: destroyed by SP beginning friendly turn on hex free of enemy SP (ignore enemy SP inside Fort/Entrenchment)
RAIN: in both Deep South & South Central (including border hexes) Areas during Jan., Feb. & Mar. turns, class 2 rivers are only crossed by ferry

Scenarios IV. Campaign Simulation Games (CSG)

Between two evenly matched players, the CSG becomes a contest of endurance and control. The American player must avoid an all-out battle of attrition yet prevent the British from controlling large areas of the colonies. A war of hit-and-run raiding will characterize a successful American strategy. The British player, on the other hand, must aggressively and ceaselessly pursue the American player while guarding controlled territory from American raids and incursions.

at start of each British turn, roll one die on the Weather Table to determine the weather for that month:

MONTH	DIE ROLL = WEATHER
Jan.	1 = Clear, 2-6 = Storms
Feb. and Dec.	1-2 = Clear, 3-6 = Storms
Mar. and Nov.	1-3 = Clear, 4-6 = Storms
Apr. and Oct.	1-4 = Clear, 5-6 = Storms
May to Aug.	automatically Clear
Sep.	1-5 = Clear, 6 = Storms

during Clear Weather turns,
- MP allowances for Fleets are doubled
- if entering OBM box with 30 MP or more, you may move to adjacent box
- if starting on OBM box, you may move 2 boxes
- if starting on OBM box adjacent to South, East, North, or Halifax boxes, you may move through one of those boxes & enter map with printed MP allowance (less 1) remaining.
Fleets in West Indies at end of a Sep., Oct. or Nov. turn are automatically sunk by hurricanes
French BF-A & BF-B
- beginning Jan. '80, must sail directly to the West Indies and stay until Aug. '80
- at start of American Aug. '80 turn, move both (with their original embarked units) directly to the South OBM box and roll 1 die for each Fleet: 1 free to move normally; 2-5 remove Fleet/embarked units from board and place them on Turn-Track at Winter Interphase; 6 remove to Left Transitional Box but can't move
- at start of American Sep. '80 & Oct. '80 turns, if either is on Left Transitional Box by rolling a 6, roll 1 die for each: 1 free to move normally; 2-5 remove Fleet/embarked units from board and place them on Turn-Track at Winter Interphase; 6 can't move
- at start of Nov. '80 turn, if still on Left Transitional Box, it may move normally
- at end of Dec. '80 turn & Dec. '81 turn: both (not sunk or on Turn-Track) must be on an OBM box or game ends in British victory
- WINTER Interphase, Fleets (with their cargo) on Turn-Track at Winter Interphase space are placed on the Right Transitional Box in the OBM chart
- beginning Jan. '81, if not sunk or on Turn-Track, must sail directly to the West Indies and stay until Aug. '81
French BF-VF
- Aug. '80 thru Jun. '81, if in Newport, can only move by the following PROCEDURE:
  1. if all the following applies at start of American turn, go to step 2.
    - Clear weather
    - total BF combat ratings in Newport exceed total in New York
    - 3FR from reinforcements K have not disembarked in South Central and/or Deep South
    - no BF in New York or, if any BF in New York, British roll one die resulting in a 6 (dr 1-5 BF was intercepted & forced to return to Newport)
  2. transport Ldr.C, 3FR, 1Sup from reinforcements K to southern map then move normally except further transporting is prohibited until Aug. '81
- beginning Aug. '81,
  - if moved, it may transport any Artillery or Supply at Newport to South Central only
  - if NOT moved, it may transport Ldr.C & 3FR from reinforcements K plus any Artillery or Supply at Newport to southern map (no other transporting allowed) or move normally without transporting
only South Central and Deep South Rate Charts are used and their CA AVG. and MAX. boxes are changed to "1"

PROCEDURE for Seasonal Interphase:

adjust VP totals per Victory Point table
same as CSG step 1. except use CA Winter Reduction Rate for 1777

Check ASC and adjust Status Indicator counters for both Areas. Units embarked on Fleets are not considered in an Area.

AREA STATUS	CA	RM	TM
NO BR in Area	Maximum	Minimum	Maximum
NO Strategic Towns controlled, NO CA in Area	Maximum	Average	Average
Some Strategic Towns controlled, NO CA in Area	Minimum	Average	Minimum
NO Strategic Towns controlled, CA in Area	Average	Maximum	Average
Some Strategic Towns controlled, CA in Area	Average	Average	Average
ALL Strategic Towns controlled	NONE	Average	Minimum
ALL Strategic Towns & Ports controlled	NONE	Minimum*	Minimum

* If lower than the allowable level, can't be increased to that level.

same as CSG step 9. except change PROCEDURE to:
1. enter CA reinforcements per Rate Chart placing them on or within 1 hex of a Strategic Town not British-controlled
2. SPRING: enter 1 American Supply to each uncontrolled Area in the same manner as CA
3. adjust RM/RD SP per Rate Chart placing new units (not reinforcements E and F – see step 4.9.) on or within 1 hex of Strategic Towns or Ports uncontrolled by British

CSG-7 The 1813 Campaign

CREDITS: Scenario Design & Research: Jim Lawler. Rules & notes are in the Boardgamer - Vol. 9, No. 3.

INTRODUCTION: This scenario covers the War of 1812 Northern Campaign in the year 1813.

COMPONENTS

MAPBOARD: the board used is the "Crucible of Liberty" mapboard (see Galvez Scenarios)
PLAYING PIECES: Players must obtain an expansion counter set to use in conjunction with some of the original 1776 pieces. Included are several new types of counters such as naval Leaders and small gunships.

The new counters to play this campaign game are in the Boardgamer - Vol. 9, No. 3.

Scenarios V. #13, #14, #15, CSG-8 – Galvez Scenarios – 1779 to 1781

CREDITS: Scenario Design & Research: Jim Lawler, Jim Caudle, J.F. Engler. Rules & notes are in Old Soldiers magazine - Vol. 1, No. 4.

INTRODUCTION: These scenarios are about the Spanish retaking of the Florida's. This was important to the revolution as it created additional problems and stretched the resources of the British. There are 3 smaller scenarios and one campaign game to choose from.

COMPONENTS

MAPBOARD: The board consists of the original 1776 mapboard extended to include America west to the Mississippi River and several hundred miles beyond that, so that New Orleans, St. Louis, and upper Great Lakes are now included. Depicted on the map are terrain features, settlements and Forts for the French & Indian War, American Revolution, and the War of 1812.

The new mapboard is entitled "Crucible of Liberty" and can be downloaded in Cyberboard gamebox form from the Yankee Air Pirates website.

PLAYING PIECES: Players must obtain a new set of counters to play these scenarios. Included are several new types of counters such as independent companies, stockades, piroux (small bateaux) and raid markers.

Printed and laminated counter sheets are available through OLD SOLDIERS magazine.

I. Sequence of Play

Each turn is one month long and is divided into two Player Segments. This sequence is continued for every turn of the game.

A. FIRST PLAYER SEGMENT

MOVEMENT PHASE: the first player moves some, none, or all his units up to their movement allowance, subject to terrain limitations and the presence of enemy units
COMBAT PHASE: both players initiate and resolve any combat they choose to execute against enemy units occupying the same hexes with their friendly units
- EXCEPTION: only the player who's Segment it is can do this in the Basic Game Scenario

B. SECOND PLAYER SEGMENT: the second player repeats the same procedure for his Player Segment

II. Movement Phase

Each unit, or stack of units in the same hex, is moved individually by tracing the path of movement through each separate hex.

Its printed movement allowance (measured in Movement Points (MP)) is the distance a unit may move in one turn. These MP are expended one point for each hex entered. However, terrain restrictions require additional MP to enter certain types of hexes.
movement is always voluntary
Each unit can move in any direction or combination of directions. A unit may spend some, none, or all its MP in a given Movement Phase. Unused MP are not carried to the next turn; they are not accumulated.
friendly units must stop and end all movement whenever entering hex occupied by enemy Strength Points (SP) not inside Fort
TERRAIN RESTRICTIONS: A complete list of terrain effects on movement is in the Terrain Effects Chart. Costs are cumulative.
- Units may not cross hexsides without sufficient MP to do so. However, units can move one hex every Movement Phase regardless of available MP. This does not allow the crossing of class 3, island or sea lane hexsides.
- CLARIFICATIONS: all-mountain hexes are treated same as a swamp hex with 6 mountain hexsides
- EXAMPLE: To cross a rough terrain hexside that is also a class 1 river hexside would cost 2 MP for the rough terrain PLUS 1 MP for the river PLUS 1 MP to enter the next hex (clear hex), for a total of 4 MP.
no limit to the number of units (combat & non-combat) that occupy a single hex
At any time, a player may consolidate or breakdown SP on the same hex. Always use the same color and unit type when doing so.

A. Entrenchments

BUILDING: any SP may build an Entrenchment on a non-enemy-occupied hex at start of the friendly Movement Phase
- can't be built on hex containing Fort or another Entrenchment
- SP that build Entrenchments may not move during that Movement Phase
- all Units on hex with a friendly Entrenchment are inside (placed underneath) the Entrenchment
EFFECT ON COMBAT: Entrenched units gain a –1 die roll modifier (DRM) when defending (in addition to other DRMs).
DESTRUCTION: entrenchments on hex without friendly units (combat & non-combat) are instantly removed from the board

B. Bateaux

BUILDING: any Magazine or Supply that begins its Movement Phase adjacent to a river, class 3 (not coastal), or port-entry hexside that is free of enemy Fleets and on hex free of enemy SP that are not inside Fort may build a Bateau
- may be built at the beginning of the Movement Phase by either of the following two methods:
  - BUILD: 1 Bateau is created for 1Sup or 1Mag on the hex by simply inverting the building unit (Magazine or Supply). The Bateau is placed inverted on the same hex.
    - the building unit can't move or support combat in Segment it built the Bateau
  - EXCHANGE: Supplies/Magazines may be exchanged for Bateaux at the following rates:
    - 1Sup, exchanged, creates up to 3 Bateaux placed inverted on hex
    - 1Mag, exchanged, creates up to 3 Bateaux and 1Sup all placed inverted on hex
- 6 Bateaux cannot be created on the same hex & inverted Bateaux may not move or be used
- all inverted units are turned face-up at end of Combat Phase of Segment of construction & each Bateau is placed with its arrow pointing to an adjacent river, class 3 (not coastal), or port-entry hexside
- destroyed counters can only be rebuilt in the turn of their destruction if they were not moved or used that turn
HEXSIDE MOVEMENT: Bateaux may move along river and class 3 (not coastal) hexsides: 15 hexsides max. per turn
- no limit to the number (friendly or enemy) that may be positioned on, or move through, one hexside
- tracing movement, it's arrow must always point towards each individual hexside being counted – at end of movement, the arrow must point to hexside adjacent to playable land
- entering a class 1 or 2 river hexside adjacent to enemy SP not inside Fort, it must end on that hexside
- may not enter hexsides containing enemy Fleets
AS TRANSPORT: On a hexside free of enemy Fleets, a Bateau may transport units moving them by hexside movement. The cost is variable up to its transport capacity of 5 points.

Unit Type Transport Cost
Infantry 1 point per SP
Dragoons 2 points per SP
Artillery 2 points per unit
British Supply 2 points per unit
American/French Supply 1 point per unit
- to be transported, the units must begin their Movement Phase adjacent to the Bateau's hexside
- may drop off land-units along the way and continue moving to their destination
- forced to end movement due to presence of enemy SP, it must debark all units to either or both adjacent hexes (even if enemy-occupied)
- at end of its Movement Phase, must always debark all units to either or both adjacent playable land hexes
  - EXCEPTION: if hexside is rough terrain, it can only debark to hex on the river side
- transported units may not move (or embark) after they debark
PORTAGE: Bateaux may move thru 1 or 2 land hexes (not mountain/swamp) if accompanied by at least 1 SP restricted by terrain
- may also move 4 hexsides max. (hexside-movement or as-transport) entirely before OR (hexside-movement only) entirely after
- moving hexside to hex counts as first hex (no cost to move hex to hexside)
- transported units (not Artillery) may accompany the Bateau on land if remaining MP allow but must end there
AS FERRY: if hexside is free of enemy Fleets, Bateaux may ferry units
- may neither move nor change arrow pointing direction in the Movement Phase in which they act as ferries
- They reduce the crossing penalty across hexsides that their arrows point toward. Land-units crossing hexsides at these points (in either direction) enjoy the following reduced crossing penalties:
  - class 1 river: no crossing penalty (same as fords)
  - class 2 or 3 hexside: only one MP to cross (ignore mapboard ferry if present)
CAPTURE: Enemy Bateaux are instantly captured if both adjacent hexes are free of enemy SP when a friendly SP enters or already occupies one of the two hexes adjacent to hexside containing the Bateau. Enemy Bateaux (not on hexside) on hex or outside Fort without enemy SP are instantly captured if a friendly SP is on hex.
- simply replace with friendly Bateau (immediately available for normal use)
- at least 1 SP of the capturing force must accompany the Bateau during Segment it is captured
- The winner may opt to destroy captured Bateaux. He simply removes them from the board in Segment of capture.
DESTRUCTION: Players may destroy their Bateaux during the Movement Phase if enemy SP do not occupy both adjacent hexes. To be destroyed on land during portage, its hex must be free of enemy SP or it must be inside Fort.

Unit Type	Transport Cost
Infantry	1 point per SP
Dragoons	2 points per SP
Artillery	2 points per unit
British Supply	2 points per unit
American/French Supply	1 point per unit

C. Automatic Elimination (AE)

EXCEPTION: eligible Partisans may instantly try to retreat per rule V.B. & if successful, may continue trying if pursued

Only units stacked together at the beginning of the Movement Phase and entering the target hex together may participate. Supply status (rule III.B.) must be considered in establishing an AE.
if starting from Fort, the stack must begin either entirely inside or entirely outside
if starting on land on hex with embarked units, the stack must begin entirely on land or entirely embarked
- naval and/or Bateau movement does not affect AE
units inside Forts may never be AE, however units in Entrenchments may be AE if there are enough SP to create 8-1 odds
after AE, the friendly units are not required to stop but may not embark and may only continue moving and/or attempt a Forced March (rule II.D.) after paying an additional 2 MP (3 MP against entrenched units) to do so

D. Forced March

Players may attempt to exceed the normal movement capabilities of SP by playing the Forced March rules below.

only SP under command of a Leader (rule IV.A.) or Artillery with Knox may attempt a Forced March
- EXCEPTION: if moved by Bateau/Naval transport this turn or if stacked with enemy SP that are not inside Fort, they can't
Forced Marches are attempted at end of all regular movement in the Movement Phase and may result in AE
A single Forced March is defined as one beginning on hex "X" and ending on hex "Z", regardless of the number of units involved. More than one Forced March situation cannot be created where units, starting on the same hex, all have the same destination.
Inverted/Decoy counters remain inverted unless the 1/2E result is rolled in step 2. of the following PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE:

moving player must state exactly which units are attempting Forced Marches, how many MP are being attempted, the exact route to be taken and the final-destination hex for all Forced Marches before any are attempted in that Movement Phase
moving player rolls one die for each attempt and consults the Forced March Table applying each result to the units in question
- SELECTED LEADER'S ABILITY
  - The following Leaders may subtract one (–1) from the Forced March die roll: Cornwallis, Grey, Tarleton, Greene and Wayne. However, the owning player must eliminate 1 Regular SP (not Elite; if none, Militia (not Elite) or Indian) from the force. This removal occurs before the die is rolled & must be done whether the March is successful or not.
  - Knox may include Artillery in a Forced March attempt of up to 3 MP if he adds one (+1) to the Forced March die roll
- each entry in the Forced March Table indicates the number of MP gained (if any) by the stack in the attempt
- "1/2E" means that half the units, rounded up, are eliminated from the board per rule III.A.2.G. If Glover's MA was used, it must be removed first, counting as 1 SP.
- All MP gained must be expended in movement along the announced route. If the units attempting the Forced March can't expend all the additional MP due to terrain restrictions, presence of enemy units, or AE, they are eliminated after the March.

III. Combat Phase

phasing player is Attacker, non-phasing player is Defender
Both players may attack enemy units stacked with friendly units. Only units in the same stack may attack each other.
- EXCEPTION: only Attacker can do this in the Basic Game Scenario
All eligible enemy units on the hex are attacked. All eligible friendly units on the hex must attack. None are excluded.
combat is always voluntary and units may never be attacked more than once per turn

A. Procedure

BASIC GAME

A. Attacker announces ONE hex he wishes to attack
B. Total SP of the Attacker & total SP of the Defender. Compare these with one another in an odds ratio. Reduce that ratio in favor of the Defender to its simplest form and find it on the Basic Game Combat Results Table.
C. roll one die and cross-index the number under the proper odds column
D. apply the result from the table to SP involved in the attack

ADVANCED GAME & CAMPAIGN GAME

Attacker announces ONE hex he wishes to attack
one round of combat is resolved as follows
- A. if Attacker is Bombarding, go to rule V.D. (Naval Bombardment) first
- B. Supply use and Elite (rule III.G.) commitment must be announced, first by the Attacker and then by the Defender
- C. total all combat modifiers to get one DRM then add or subtract this number to the Attacker's die roll on the Advanced Game Combat Results Table (CRT)
  - DRM less than –4 is treated as –4 and DRM greater than +4 is treated as +4
- D. Total each side's eligible SP (rule IV.B.) and compare these with one another in an odds ratio. Reduce that ratio in favor of the Defender to its simplest form and find it on the CRT (odds worse than 1-3 are not allowed; odds greater than 5-1 are treated as 5-1).
- E. Each side secretly chooses one of eight (8) Tactical Cards, simultaneously revealing them, and cross index the two cards on the Tactical Results Matrix. The outcomes from the Matrix are as follows:
  - +2, –1, 0 etc. – add this number to the Attacker's die roll on the CRT
  - +2, –2, 0 – add this number to Attacker's die roll as above, but NO FURTHER COMBAT is possible in that hex during the current Combat Phase
  - NC – NO COMBAT: the die is not rolled & there is no combat in that hex during the current Combat Phase
- F. roll one die and cross-index the number under the proper odds column on the CRT
  - die rolls less than –3 are treated as –3, die rolls greater than +10 are treated as +10
- G. apply result from the CRT to eliminate SP that participated in the combat using the following casualty priority lists
  - NE – NO EFFECT: there is no more combat in that hex during the current Combat Phase
  - AMERICAN:
    1. Elite if used
    2. 2 SP of RM/RD/AI in any combination
    3. 1CA
    4. alternate between 1RM (or RD/AI) and 1CA until all eliminated with no elimination of last CA until all RM/RD/AI are eliminated
    5. FR
  - BRITISH:
    1. Elite if used
    2. 1BI
    3. 2 SP of TM/TD in any combination
    4. 1BR
    5. alternate between 1TM (or TD/BI) and 1BR with no elimination of last BR until all TM/TD are eliminated
  - EXAMPLE: An American force of Elites, Militia and CA attacks a British force. If half the attacking force is eliminated, the American player must first remove the Elite if it was used. Then remove two Militia units, then one CA, and then alternate between Militia and CA until the half requirement is satisfied.
- H. RETREAT: if all SP controlled at start of this round are eliminated but friendly SP remain on hex, entire friendly force MAY retreat together one hex or inside friendly besieged Fort or embarked on Fleet(s) – if unable, force remains on hex
  - can't retreat across mountain hexside or any larger than a class 1 river
  - hex retreated to: clear over swamp, can't be enemy-occupied and if defending, can't be one the Attacker moved from
    - if unable, retreat to adjacent hex occupied by both enemy/friendly forces
- I. if Defender plays Withdraw card ending combat, he MUST try to retreat same as above
Attacker has the option to continue his attack for as long as he wants if NC on the Tactical Matrix has not been indexed, NE has not been rolled on the CRT and neither side has retreated
- if he continues, repeat step 2. (priority lists in step 2.G. are reset to "1)") – other Elites may be used
- if he declines, the Defender may continue by attacking that hex using steps 2. and 3. as if he was Attacker
  - EXCEPTION: Washington when stacked with CA may break off tactical-card combat between rounds from 2nd round on
repeat steps 1. thru 3. until Attacker decides to stop attacking
in step 1., if at least 5 SP were attacked on a Strategic Town or at least 10 SP were attacked in a stack, check Leader promotion/demotion (Campaign Simulation Game rule IV.)
Defender announces ONE hex he wishes to attack which was not already involved in combat this turn. Repeat steps 1. thru 5. with Defender as the new Attacker and Attacker as the new Defender (priority lists in step 2.G. are reset to "1)").
- EXCEPTION: may not initiate combat if either friendly or enemy units on hex are inside Forts or Entrenchments
repeat steps 1. thru 6. until both sides decide or are forced to stop attacking, then check Leader casualties (rule IV.C.)

B. Supply Units

EFFECT ON COMBAT or AE: if a Supply unit is not used, friendly SP are halved when attacking or defending (retain fractions)
- must be present on the same hex with friendly SP for them to attack or defend at full strength
- use is always optional
- only one can be used to support combat on any one hex per Combat Phase (even if multiple attacks occur)
- In combat (not AE), Supply used to support two or more rounds that turn is eliminated at end of the Combat Phase. If all friendly SP are eliminated, Supply used in only one round that turn is eliminated.
- if a player chooses not to use Supply in a combat round, he may choose to use it in a subsequent round without forcing its removal (if not used for two or more rounds)
CAPTURE: Supply on hex or outside Fort without friendly SP are instantly captured if hex has an enemy SP
- simply replace with friendly Supply
- at least 1 SP of the capturing force must accompany the Supply during Segment it is captured
- The winner may opt to destroy captured Supply. He simply removes them from the board in Segment of capture.
DESTRUCTION: players may destroy their Supply during their Movement Phase if enemy SP do not occupy the same hex
- EXCEPTION: inside Fort they may be destroyed even if enemy SP occupy hex

C. Magazine Units

BUILDING: Magazines may only be built on Town hexes (not outside Fort) free of enemy units
- 2Sup must start their Movement Phase on same Town hex. Remove them and place 1Mag on hex.
- may be used normally in the turn of their construction
EFFECT ON COMBAT: Magazines are similar to Supply but they are never consumed in combat
- may supply any number of multiple combats in different hexes in the same turn
- may supply all combat situations within a two-hex radius, limited by the following restrictions:
  - two-hex radius cannot cross class 3 hexsides
  - Two-hex radius cannot pass through an enemy-occupied hex to supply a combat in a second hex. In other words, there can't be enemy units on the intervening hex. Nor may there be enemy units on the hex that contains the Magazine (unless the friendly SP being supplied is on the same hex with, or adjacent to, the Magazine).
  - a besieged Magazine inside Fort (enemy SP on same hex) can't supply friendly SP on adjacent hexes and vice-versa
REDUCING: Magazines may never move. However, at start of a friendly Movement Phase, it may be reduced to 1Sup which may move about freely and supply combat normally on the same turn.
CAPTURE: Magazines on hex without friendly SP are instantly captured if hex has an enemy SP
- simply replace with friendly Magazine
- The winner may opt to destroy captured Magazines. He simply removes them from the board in Segment of capture.
DESTRUCTION: players may destroy their Magazines during their Movement Phase if enemy SP do not occupy the same hex
- EXCEPTION: inside Fort they may be destroyed even if enemy SP occupy hex

D. Forts

Units under a Fort counter are inside Fort. Units on top of it are outside Fort.

BUILDING: Forts are built only on Town hexes unoccupied by enemy units. Only one Fort may be built per such hex.
1. Must be 1Sup (or Magazine), 1Art, and 1SP of BR, CA or FR at the beginning of the turn on same hex. These units are removed and replaced with an inverted Fort counter at END of Combat Phase (any Entrenchment remains). The inverted counter does not function in any way as a Fort. If on a hex by itself with enemy SP, it is automatically removed.
2. In the next friendly Combat Phase, even if hex is enemy-occupied, the inverted Fort counter is flipped and used normally. If an Entrenchment is on hex it is removed. If a Magazine is on hex it may be placed outside Fort.
EFFECT ON MOVEMENT
- units entering hex with all enemy SP inside Fort may continue moving
- Units inside Fort with enemy SP outside may not leave hex. Instead they must stop outside Fort and end their movement. In the next turn they may move out of that hex normally.
- Units entering hex with friendly units inside Fort and enemy SP outside may not enter Fort in the same turn UNLESS they participate in an attack against the enemy SP. Units inside Fort are not required to participate in the attack but have the option of doing so. Friendly surviving units may immediately enter Fort.
- friendly units may move into or out of a besieged Fort (enemy SP on hex) by Bateau on class 3 hexsides only
EFFECT ON COMBAT: Forts double the SP of those inside Fort for defense only (casualties are evaluated normally)
- SP (not Supply) inside Fort attacking enemy units outside lose all defensive benefits and are placed outside Fort. They may not move back inside until conclusion of all combat in the hex.
- neither Tactical Cards nor retreats are used when attacking units inside Fort
- All effects of supply in combat apply to units inside Forts. Unsupplied SP inside Forts would be halved and then doubled, thereby maintaining their basic total when unsupplied inside Fort.
- if enemy SP are both inside and outside Fort, they must be attacked separately
  - all enemy SP outside Fort must be either eliminated or forced to retreat before attacking those inside
  - both groups may be attacked consecutively in the same turn
  - Both sides treat this as one continuous attack for supply purposes. However, casualty results against SP outside Fort do not affect SP inside Fort.
CAPTURE: Forts on hex without friendly SP are instantly captured if hex has enemy SP
- simply replace with friendly Fort
- the capturing units may immediately enter Fort
DESTRUCTION: Forts may be destroyed (dismantled) at END of the owning player's Movement Phase if there is at least one friendly SP also on hex. They may not be dismantled if there are enemy SP on hex. To dismantle Fort, remove it from the board.

E. Artillery Units

NOTE: Artillery has enhanced MP – British & French Artillery now have 7 MP, while American Artillery now has 8 MP

EFFECT ON COMBAT
- Artillery may only affect combat if they themselves are supplied for combat
  - EXCEPTION: unsupplied inside Fort, it may fire one round in combat – this means once per month
- gain –1 DRM for each Artillery unit defending inside Fort/Entrenchment or +1 for each unit attacking same
CAPTURE: Artillery on hex or outside Fort without friendly SP are instantly captured if hex has an enemy SP
- simply replace with friendly Artillery
- at least 1 SP of the capturing force must accompany the Artillery during Segment it is captured
- The winner may opt to destroy captured Artillery. He simply removes them from the board in Segment of capture.
DESTRUCTION: players may destroy their Artillery during their Movement Phase if enemy SP do not occupy the same hex
- EXCEPTION: inside Fort they may be destroyed even if enemy SP occupy hex

F. Militia and Indians

Whenever Militia and/or Indians of either side are involved in combat by themselves against BR, CA, or FR, they suffer a –1 DRM penalty (in addition to other DRMs) when attacking or defending.
- EXCEPTION: Militia-only force whose overall commander is Tarleton, Ferguson, Morgan or Arnold (as American) does not suffer the DRM
Indians with or without Leaders are Partisans (rule V.)
- EXCEPTION: Regular Leaders may lead Indians, but in that case the Indians cease being Partisans & may only move 8 MP

G. Elite Units

Elite units (Elites) named after Leaders must accompany that Leader always. If separated (not by death or capture), the Elite is eliminated and replaced with 1 SP of the matching color, one turn after separation.
units moving with Glover's MA reduce their cost of crossing each river (or using each ferry) by one MP
EFFECT ON COMBAT
- may not be used to attack in combat where the odds are greater than 2:1
- may only be used in ONE round, as an Elite, in a combat situation, otherwise it acts as a normal combat SP of one; if a player has more than one Elite present he may choose to employ them (one per round) in subsequent rounds
- gain +1 DRM in the combat round they are used
- orange & green Elites with or without Militia are treated as BR & CA

IV. Leaders

each Leader counter has the following information: Name, Rank, Seniority, Combat Rating, Max. SP per Round
all Leaders have a movement allowance of 10
- EXCEPTION: if accompanying a Dragoon for its entire turn, the movement allowance is 13
The highest-ranking Leader in a stack is the overall commander (2-star is higher than 1-star). Within rank, the lowest seniority number named Leader is highest ranked. Nameless Leaders & Knox outrank Partisan Leaders (rule V.).
- EXCEPTION: Leader E (not French) outranks 1 nameless Leader or 1 Partisan Leader (2 or more, he is subordinate)

A. Effect on Movement

if BR, CA, or FR move on land, or by mapboard ferry, without a Regular Leader in their stack, movement costs are DOUBLED
- the Leaders don't have to begin the Movement Phase stacked with a SP for the SP to pay normal movement costs, they may move about the board and any number of times pick up or drop off SP as they go
COMMAND: the number of SP that can be moved as a stack (lead) by a Leader is limited by his rank
- British 2-star leads 8 BR SP
- French 2-star leads any combination of 8 FR/CA
- British 1-star leads 4 BR SP but Rawdon if overall commander leads 6 BR SP
- French 1-star leads any combination of 4 FR/CA
- American 2-star leads 6 CA SP (not FR) but Washington leads 8 CA SP (not FR)
- American 1-star leads 3 CA SP (not FR) but Lafayette leads any combination of 3 CA/FR
- Partisan Leader leads 3 Partisans, no more than 2 of which can be Dragoons
- may be combined to lead a stack of SP
EXAMPLE: Two British 1-star generals on hex with 10BR, 2TM, 1BI, 1Art. and 1Sup. can lead only 8 SP at normal cost. The two remaining BR may move but at double movement cost. There is no effect on the TM, BI, Supply or Artillery.

B. Effect on Combat

At beginning of combat, both players determine their overall commander on hex. Those two combat ratings are subtracted to determine a DRM (in addition to other DRMs).
COMMAND: the SP controlled by a Leader in the Combat Phase is the same as he leads in movement except in addition to Regular SP, Militia/Dragoon/Indian SP are also counted and French Leaders cannot control SP other than FR
- a side with uncontrolled SP in the combat hex or no Leader suffers a –1 DRM penalty
- each round, the total amount of SP (controlled + uncontrolled) eligible for combat is limited by the following table
Overall Commander American British French
Washington or Howe no limit no limit —
2-star 24 32 24
Rawdon — 12 —
1-star named Regular 10 10 10
Leader E 6 8 —
none or nameless 3 4 4
Partisan 3 3 —
- When combining FR and American SP, the allies suffer –1 DRM in combat. The side with the most SP present has its highest-ranking Leader on hex as overall commander of the combined force (tied, use French).
  - EXCEPTIONS: 1) if Washington is on hex, he is overall commander without the –1 DRM; 2) if Lafayette is highest ranking allied general on hex, he is overall commander without the –1 DRM
Carleton: outside of Canada, his printed combat rating is lowered to +1
Knox: (the "A" means artillery) stacked with Artillery while attacking a Fort or Entrenchment, American gains an additional +1 DRM for first round of combat

Overall Commander	American	British	French
Washington or Howe	no limit	no limit	—
2-star	24	32	24
Rawdon	—	12	—
1-star named Regular	10	10	10
Leader E	6	8	—
none or nameless	3	4	4
Partisan	3	3	—

C. Casualties and Capture

Optional rule VI.A. (Leader Casualty Check) is mandatory in Scenarios 2, 7 and CSGs 1, 2, 3, 4, 6.

MOVEMENT PHASE: Leader in hex or outside Fort without friendly SP is instantly captured if hex has an enemy SP
- named Leaders may be voluntarily removed from the game by their owner – treat them as killed (last bullet below)
COMBAT PHASE: after last round of each combat (not NE result in 1st round), for both forces' SP
- if any survive, roll 2 dice for each named Leader & Leader E in that force: 2-10 no effect, 11 wounded, 12 killed
- if none left, nameless Ldrs. in that force are removed to Turn-Track & placed at start of next turn on a friendly-occupied hex
- if none left (not inside Fort), roll one die for each named Leader & Leader E in that force: 1-3 retreats to nearest friendly-occupied hex, 4 captured, 5 wounded, 6 killed
- if none left inside Fort, roll one die for each named Leader & Leader E in that force: 1 escapes to nearest friendly-occupied hex, 2-5 captured, 6 killed
Captured Leaders are removed from the board. They are exchanged at end of each Interphase in CSG Scenarios and beginning of each turn in AG Scenarios. Prisoner exchange is mandatory and is on a one-to-one basis – ranking Leaders first.
- EXCEPTIONS: 1) Tarleton, Arnold (as British), and all Partisan Leaders are permanently removed from play (hanged); 2) Leaders E and nameless Leaders are placed at start of next turn on any friendly-occupied hex(es)
Wounded Leaders are removed from the board. Roll one die for each one to see how many friendly turns (half-turns) he must wait to recover. At start of next friendly turn, place Leader on friendly-occupied hex.
killed Leaders are permanently removed from the game and replaced by a nameless Leader (if none, players make their own)
- EXCEPTIONS: 1) Knox, Lafayette, and all Partisan Leaders are never replaced; 2) if no friendly SP left, any replacement is placed at start of next turn on friendly-occupied hex

V. Partisans

orange & green Leaders are Partisan Leaders & may only lead Militia/Dragoon SP – such SP are Partisans
- EXCEPTIONS: 1) Ferguson may lead 4 BR as a Regular (not Partisan) Leader; 2) Indians with or without a Leader are Partisans
Sumter/Warner outrank Marion/Stark, British order of rank: 1 Watson, 2 Ferguson, 3 Johnson, 4 Brant

A. Effect on Movement

Partisans (not Dragoons) have a movement allowance of 10
Partisan Leaders (not Ferguson) are confined to the jurisdiction they start the game in. North is Middle States & New England (also Canada until 1777), South is Deep South & South Central. They and their Partisans are eliminated if outside jurisdiction.
Marion: may lead units (or move) through ONE swamp hex each turn at the cost of one MP (not two)
Sumter: prohibited from ending consecutive turns stacked with the same Leader

B. Effect on Combat

RETREAT: if enemy force begins its Combat Phase on hex with friendly Partisans & no friendly Regulars (SP or Leaders), the entire Partisan force may try to retreat together by rolling one die: 1-4 no effect, 5-6 retreats same as rule III.A.2.H.
Brant: only controls TM/TD and/or Butler'sRang if stacked w/BI at start of combat (BI killed that combat doesn't cancel control)

VI. Optional Rules

A. Leader Casualty Check

This method works best in games that contain a great number of SP. It is mandatory in Scenarios 2, 7 and CSGs 1, 2, 3, 4, 6.

Casualty Die Roll (CDR): 1-3 no effect, 4 captured, 5 wounded, 6 killed
- EXCEPTIONS: 1) no SP left and outside Fort, 1-3 retreat to nearest friendly-occupied hex, 4 captured, 5 wounded, 6 killed; 2) no SP left and inside Fort, 1 escape to nearest friendly-occupied hex, 2-5 captured, 6 killed

COMBAT PHASE: after the last round of each combat (not NE result in 1st round),

if a player has no SP left on hex,
- all friendly nameless Leaders (not Leader E) on hex are removed to Turn-Track & placed at start of next turn on friendly-occupied hexes in any combination
- each named Leader & Leader E on hex must undergo a CDR
if a player lost SP but SP remain on hex, roll 2 dice & add result to friendly SP lost
- if total is 13 or more, each friendly 1-star named Leader & Leader E on hex must undergo a CDR
- if total is 14 or more, each friendly 2-star Leader on hex (not overall commander) must undergo a CDR

B. Inverted/Decoy Counters

This rule simulates the lack of precise information available to each side on the strength and disposition of opposing forces.

Only CA & Militia/Dragoon/Indian SP can be used inverted. All other types must move and function face up.
all inverted counters (including Dragoons) have a maximum movement allowance of 8
Inverting counters is done at a player's option. Dragoon SP must be turned face up to move at their full movement allowance.
inverted counters remain inverted until entering hex occupied by enemy SP, or enemy SP enter their hex
- Both sides immediately flip their SP on the mutually occupied hex. They cannot be inverted again until they begin their Movement Phase on hex unoccupied by enemy SP.
DECOY COUNTERS: May only be used when noted in scenario Set-Up. They move in the same manner as real SP except:
- may never move into hexes occupied by enemy units
- If land-unit enters hex occupied by enemy Decoy Counter, that Decoy is immediately placed on the nearest hex (unoccupied by enemy units) containing friendly units. It may be turned over and moved normally in the next Movement Phase.

Campaign Simulation Game

NOTE: ALL PREVIOUS RULES ARE ALSO IN FORCE

CSG I. Strategic Areas and Towns

CONTROL: Only the British can control a Town, Strategic Town, Strategic Area or Halifax. Occupation must be by debarked SPs. Towns and Halifax are controlled by occupying with 1TM or 1BR.

A. Strategic Towns

TOWN	BR NEEDED
Boston	4
Newport	3
New York	6
Philadelphia	4
Charleston	2
All others	1

B. Strategic Areas

British control an Area by controlling all Strategic Towns in that Area (listed in following table).

EXCEPTION: control of New England and/or Middle States also requires control of Montreal & Quebec (similar to Strategic Town)

Boston	Ticonderoga	Alexandria	Hillsboro
Newport	Ft. Stanwix	Charlottesville	Wilmington
Springfield	Albany	Richmond	Camden
Hartford	Wyoming	Petersburg	Charleston

C. Indian Villages

Indian Villages are Owego, Painted Post and Unadilla.

Forts and Magazines may not be built on the three Indian Villages
a player may not move units into an Indian Village until the enemy moves a BI or AI out of that Village or moves a Regular/Militia SP of any kind (not Leaders) into that Village

CSG II. Seasonal Interphase

PROCEDURE: at end of each March, June, September and December turn, the following Interphase steps are performed

WINTER: total CA+CA Elite SP are reduced depending on location per the following table (fractions round down)

CA WINTER REDUCTION RATES — AREA STATUS	1776	1777	1778	1779
NO Strategic Towns controlled	25%	25%	0%	25%
some Strategic Towns controlled	50%	50%	25%	50%
controlled Area	100%	75%	50%	75%
total: Canada + West Indies + at sea	75%	75%	75%	50%

SPRING and FALL: each player rolls 2 dice & looks up result in Random Events Table. Results are applied in step 14.

RANDOM EVENTS TABLE

DR	BRITISH	AMERICAN
2	Increased Effort to End War at Home: enter 2BR on one controlled Port	Spain Invades Georgia: enter 2 SP and a nameless 1-star Leader on one hex within 3 hexes of Savannah (use French counters)
3	Additional Supply from England: enter 1 Supply on controlled Port	Improved Dragoon Training: replace 1RM with 1RD at no cost
4	Successful Attempt to Gain Indian Allies: enter 1BI on Montreal	France Increases Support: enter 1 American or French Supply on an uncontrolled Port
5	Successful Recruitment of TM: enter 2TM, one each on North and South map portions	Congress Raises Bounty for CA: enter 2CA on uncontrolled Town nearest largest American force
6-8	No Effect	No Effect
9	Tories Fear Reprisals: remove 2TM, one each from North and South map portions	Locals Fear Reprisals: remove 2RM, one each from North and South map portions

12	War Rumors in Europe: deduct 2BR from British reinforcements	Local Governors Discourage Enlistments: deduct 2CA from American reinforcements

all Leaders' combat ratings are reset to their printed value plus any Promotions
on land hexes in each Area plus Canada, each side's highest ranked Leader must be stacked with the largest number of SP
- if not, reduce both his and the "Leader stacked with the most (or equal number of) SP" combat ratings by one (–1)
  - EXCEPTION: combat ratings of 0 are not reduced
after 1776, each SPRING: if Middle States Area is uncontrolled, American rolls a die: 1-2 enter (or rebuild) the AI unit on Unadilla or, if green-striped BI (British ally) is on mapboard, replace it with AI unit, 3-6 remove it from the board
WINTER: if AI unit is on mapboard, replace it with green-striped BI unit placed at Unadilla
after 1778, each SPRING:
- both players may rebuild one lost Elite (not if its Leader is captured or eliminated)
  - replaces 1 SP of the same color anywhere on the board
  - A wounded Leader's Elite can be rebuilt however, the Elite can't be placed on the board until the Leader returns to the board. Place the rebuilt Elite with its Leader on the Time Record Card to appear with him when he returns.
- British may replace one BI lost anywhere with 1BI at Oswego or Montreal

AREA STATUS CHART

AREA STATUS	CA	RM	TM
NO BR in Area	Maximum	Minimum	Maximum
NO Strategic Towns controlled, NO CA in Area	Maximum	Average	Average
some Strategic Towns controlled, NO CA in Area	Minimum	Average	Minimum
NO Strategic Towns controlled, CA in Area	Average	Maximum	Average
some Strategic Towns controlled, CA in Area	Average	Average	Average
controlled	NONE	Minimum*	Minimum

* if lower than the allowable level, can't be increased to that level

each player adjusts his Militia levels and enters his new arrivals
- the CA Rate Chart value is the number of CA reinforcement SP available for the Area
- the Militia Rate Chart value is the number of Militia + Elite Militia + Partisan SPs that can be in the Area at start of a season
  - if Militia SP are below the allowed level, additional Militia SP are brought in to bring the number up to that level
  - if Militia SP exceed the allowed level, all in excess must be removed from the board
  - Militia in Canada (includes Halifax) are always totaled with those in the Middle States Area. Excess Militia SP may be removed from either Canada or Middle States Area; however, arriving SP must be placed in the Middle States Area.
  - Militia in the West Indies are always totaled with those in the Deep South Area. Excess Militia SP may be removed from either West Indies or Deep South Area; however, arriving SP must be placed in the Deep South Area.
- all units scheduled for arrival must be entered as soon as they become available or they are lost
- unless noted in the following PROCEDURE, units scheduled for arrival may be placed on enemy-occupied hexes and may be split up and placed in any combination
- if friendly besieged Fort on entry hex, new units must be entered outside Fort
  - EXCEPTION: may enter inside Fort if entry hex is a Port that is not blockaded (enemy Fleet on port-entry hexside)
PROCEDURE:
1. adjust RM+RD SP per Rate Chart placing new SP in any combination on or within 1 hex of uncontrolled Strategic Towns
  - if uncontrolled Area has all Strategic Towns controlled, place them on adjacent hexes of Strategic Towns
  - RD may replace new or existing RM at the following rate: number of RM on the Rate Chart divided by 4 (round up)
    - if number of RD exceeds this level at start of the Interphase, eliminate or replace them to the proper level
    - EXAMPLE: for 1-4 on a Rate Chart, 1RD may replace 1RM. For 5-8 on the chart, 2RD may replace 2RM, etc.
2. enter CA reinforcements per Rate Chart in the same manner as RM
3. adjust TM+TD SP per Rate Chart placing new SP in any combination on controlled Strategic Towns
  - if no controlled Strategic Towns are in the Area, place them on Strategic Towns unoccupied by enemy units
    - if all Strategic Towns are enemy-occupied, place them on adjacent hexes of Strategic Towns
  - TD may replace new or existing TM in the same manner as RD and are adjusted in the same manner as RD
4. SPRING: enter 1 American Supply to each uncontrolled Area in the same manner as RM. SUMMER: enter 1 American Supply to each Area with no controlled Strategic Towns in same manner as RM
5. beginning WINTER 1777:
  - enter 2BR on one controlled Port and 2BR on New York (city) if controlled
  - WINTER: enter 1BR on Charleston if controlled and 1BR on Philadelphia if controlled
  - SPRING, SUMMER and FALL: enter 2 British Supplies on one controlled Port: Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Charleston or Quebec
after French Intervention, roll to call up Variable Forces (rule V.E.) including any damaged Fleets
after French Intervention, roll to remove Variable Forces (rule V.E.) including any damaged Fleets
if both sides have captured Leaders, they are exchanged on a one-to-one basis (ignore rank), each side's ranking Leaders first
- place exchanged Leaders on the Turn-Track at the current Interphase space
both players may Transfer Leaders – British does all his Transfers first, then American does all his
- If named Leaders are on Turn-Track at the current Interphase space, you may enter them in any combination to hexes occupied by friendly SP – American may enter his on uncontrolled Towns instead
- one named Leader on the mapboard may be placed on the Turn-Track at the next Interphase
- one nameless Leader on the mapboard may be moved to hex occupied by friendly SP – American may move his to an uncontrolled Town instead
SPRING and FALL: each player applies Random Event rolled in step 2. – American goes first

CSG III. Indian Reinforcements

first time all Strategic Towns in a Deep South COLONY are controlled, enter 1BI on J5 at start of next British turn
first time Deep South AREA is controlled, enter 1BI on R9 at start of next British turn

CSG IV. Promotion

in a single Combat Phase, if a named Leader with a combat rating of 0 or +1 (not already promoted) is overall commander while achieving any of the following, he may add +1 to his combat rating
- attacks at least 5 SP on a Strategic Town on 2-1 or less CRT column and destroys them or causes retreat
- defends against at least 5 SP on a Strategic Town (any odds) and survives without retreating
- attacks at least 10 SP on 3-2 or less CRT column and destroys them
promoted Leaders are demoted to original combat rating by failing to succeed as overall commander in any of the actions above

CSG V. Sea Power

Fleets on class 2 rivers prevent enemy land-units from crossing at that hexside
each Fleet (BF, TF, CN, VF) has the following information on it: ID Letter, Naval Combat SPs, Hexside Movement Indicator, Transport Capacity, Type Symbol, Movement Allowance

A. Naval Movement

Movement of Fleets is executed in their Movement Phase in the same manner as land movement.

ON-BOARD MOVEMENT: on-board movement is a combination of the following types
- RIVER AND CLASS 3 HEXSIDES: Fleets may move along river or class 3 hexsides at a cost of one movement point per hexside in the same manner as Bateaux with these limitations:
  - NONE may move along class 1 rivers. Only TF and the CN may move along class 2 rivers.
  - movement through hexes that contain land (not yellow islands) is prohibited
  - may enter hexside occupied by enemy Fleets, but must stop there
  - do not have to stop for enemy SP on land or enemy Bateaux
  - TF on class 2 rivers must stop if entering a hexside adjacent to enemy Fort containing supplied Artillery
- SEA-LANE HEXES: Fleets expend one movement point per sea-lane hex entered
  - units on sea-lane hexes may move to any class 3 hexside that is directly connected to that hex and vice-versa
  - must stop when entering a sea-lane hex occupied by enemy Fleets
- PORT HEXES: Fleets may enter or leave port-hexes (Ports) at no cost in MP
  - only enter or leave a Port by moving through the port-entry hexside indicated by the arrowhead symbol
  - Fleets on the port-hex indicate they are in the Port and any on adjacent hexsides are outside the Port
  - each Port holds an unlimited number of Fleets
  - enemy Fleets may not enter a Port occupied by friendly Fleets
  - Fleets in a Port containing enemy SP but no friendly SP are instantly placed on the port-entry hexside unless they immediately debark a SP
OFF-BOARD MOVEMENT: There are three sea-lane exits marked NORTH, EAST, and SOUTH. Whenever Fleets leave the map via these exits they are placed on the Off-Board Movement (OBM) Chart as outlined below. Fleets must have at least one MP remaining after entering the edge-most sea-lane hex to move off the map.
- NORTH Exit
  - British BF and TF have the option of moving to the NORTH box or to the HALIFAX box
    - HALIFAX represents the British naval base (Port) at Halifax, Nova Scotia. Only British units may use this box. If entering or leaving via the NORTH exit, the cost to debark or embark is the same as a Port.
  - French BF and the CN must always move to the NORTH box
  - Fleets intending to move to the St. Lawrence River must enter either the NORTH or HALIFAX (if British) boxes. In their next Movement Phase, these Fleets appear on the first class 3 river hexside at a cost of one MP.
- EAST Exit: Fleets are placed on the EAST box of the OBM Chart
- SOUTH Exit: Fleets are placed on the SOUTH box of the OBM Chart
- within the OBM Chart: Fleets may move from one box to another (once per turn) if they are joined by double-headed arrows
  - entering/leaving the Halifax box via the NORTH box, there is no cost to debark/embark
  - Transitional Boxes marked "FR" are sources of French Supply. French BF beginning their turn on such a box may embark 1Sup if they do not leave the box that Movement Phase.
  - WEST INDIES: The West Indies boxes are Ports for both French and British forces (each restricted to side that owns it). There is never any cost to embark/debark.
- Fleets may re-enter the map only if they begin their Movement Phase on the SOUTH, EAST, NORTH or HALIFAX boxes. They are placed on the first sea-lane hex of the appropriate exit at a cost of one MP and may continue moving from there.

B. Naval Transport

Fleets may transport certain land-units during their Movement Phase.

British may transport Leaders, BR, TM, TD, Artillery and Supply by ship via British BF and TF
American may transport Leaders, FR, CA, Artillery and Supply by ship via French BF and Supply/Artillery in the West Indies via the CN (rule V.F. WEST INDIES OPERATION)
TM and named Leaders at sea (sea-lane hex or OBM Chart) without Regular SP at the start of a season are automatically eliminated (treat Leaders as killed).
the land-units must begin their Movement Phase on either a Port (including West Indies and Halifax) or a hex adjacent to a class 2 or 3 hexside
May be debarked onto either a port-hex or a hex adjacent to a class 2 or 3 hexside, or the West Indies (not Militia) or Halifax boxes. Onto a port-hex is only allowed by entering the Port.

Fleets must begin the Movement Phase in a Port with or hexside adjacent to the land-units to be transported

Land-units are signified as embarked by being placed directly underneath the transporting Fleet. If stacked with other Fleets, passengers must be kept separate. Transferring directly between Fleets is prohibited.
The Transport Capacity located in the upper right corner of the Fleet indicates the maximum number of units that a Fleet can transport at one time. Capacity cost is determined by the same method as used for Bateaux.

embarking/debarking operations invoke MP penalties for both Fleets and land-units

TYPE	FLEET COST	LAND-UNIT COST
Fleet in Port	5 MP	may move only 1/2 MP (round down) upon debarking (0 MP)
Fleet on class 2/3 river or class 3 bay/lake or port-entry hexside	10 MP	may not move when debarked
Fleet on class 3 coastal hexside	15 MP	may not move when debarked
Fleet debarking onto hex occupied by enemy SP	5 MP + cost listed above	may not move when debarked

Fleets can't debark land-units if they do not have enough MP left to accomplish the operation as outlined above
a land-unit may only embark once per turn
each individual stack of land-units debarked invokes MP penalties for both the Fleet and the stack
Fleets (not the CN) may act as ferries (rule II.B. AS FERRY) across class 2 or 3 hexsides. They may also embark/debark land-units in the same turn but can't move.
Fleets on the move (not stationary) can't debark land-units if they enter hexside with an enemy Fleet
if a Fort is besieged, land-units can only embark-from/debark-to the inside if the transporting Fleet is in a Port

C. Naval Combat

Fleets in their Combat Phase may attack enemy Fleets.

must occupy the same sea-lane hex or class 3 hexside and may not be in the OBM Chart
never forced to attack, but if attacked, must defend
may not attack Bateaux and vice versa
unescorted TF may never attack – if attacked, they are automatically sunk
- EXCEPTION: when TF are attacked by the CN the result is not automatic, but is resolved using the "0" column on the FEC

PROCEDURE:

all naval SP of the Attacker are compared to all naval SP of the Defender and the DIFFERENCE (not odds ratio) between their strengths is located on the Fleet Engagement Chart (FEC)
one die is rolled and cross-indexed with the strength difference to obtain the result of the engagement
attacks less than –1 are not allowed; attacks greater than +4 are treated as +4
Result is applied immediately. Damaged Fleets are removed from the board immediately (along with any land-units onboard). Previously damaged Fleets reappear with their cargo on any of the three Transitional Boxes on the OBM chart after the proper number of quarters has elapsed. Fleets sunk are permanently removed from the game (along with any land-units onboard).
- CLARIFICATION: D-1 = 3 months, D-2 = 6 months (ex: a Fleet suffering D-1 in March reappears at start of friendly turn in June)
result of combat applies to all the Fleets of the side in question located on that hex

D. Naval Bombardment

Coastal Forts & Entrenchments under attack by land forces may also be bombarded by adjacent BF and/or BF in target's Port.

Fleets that debarked land-units can bombard in same turn
+1 DRM for each bombarding Fleet

PROCEDURE:

at the very start of each round, Attacker announces which Fleets will attempt to bombard
if defending force has supplied Artillery, Defender announces how he will inflict damage in the combat
- AL1, AE or 1/2AE results must be inflicted entirely on either land or naval forces
- AL2 result may be split between land and naval forces or inflicted entirely on one or the other
Attacker rolls one die for each bombarding Fleet: 1-4 the Fleet may bombard, 5-6 it may not
If any Fleets are damaged, a die roll is immediately made for each one. The number rolled is the number of QUARTERS (3 months) it is out of play. There is a strong chance that a Fleet would never see action again in a scenario, especially in a short or medium length scenario, therefore discretion is recommended in using Naval Bombardment.

E. Fleet Availability and Order of Appearance

Unless noted otherwise in scenario rules, British and French naval forces are grouped into two groups regarding their availability:

ON STATION: units that are always available, barring combat damage
- British: available at start of game or as reinforcements – 2BF and 2TF
- French: available in, or after, the turn of French intervention – 2BF (rule VII.B. ORDER OF BATTLE)
VARIABLE FORCES (VF): forces stationed in other areas called upon for limited duty in the North American sphere
- British VF are BF-VF1, BF-VF2 and TF-VF
- French VF are BF-VF carrying Ldr.B, Ldr.C, 5FR, 1Art, 1Sup initially, then 1Sup each additional appearance
- After French intervention, both sides may attempt to call up their own VF during each seasonal Interphase – British first. One die is rolled for EACH Fleet called upon: 5-6 that Fleet is available for the season.
- Arriving VF must be placed on OBM Transitional Boxes – British first. British VF are placed in any combination.
- each VF already called up at the beginning of a new season may remain in play on a die roll of 4-6 (each roll separately)
  - VF unable to remain in play are immediately removed from the map
  - Land-units onboard a VF Fleet unable to remain on the mapboard are removed with that Fleet. They may be brought back into play in a subsequent quarter

F. Continental Navy

has no transport capacity (unless conducting the WEST INDIES OPERATION) and cannot act as a ferry
has zero (0) combat SP; may not attack BF, only unescorted TFs but does not automatically sink them, it must attack them under the 0 column on the FEC instead
if damaged, it must spend the required number of quarters in an uncontrolled American Port (not West Indies) or it is eliminated
must end its Movement Phase in an uncontrolled American Port (not West Indies) at least once every 6 turns or it is eliminated
remains in the game indefinitely or until it is SUNK by the British
WEST INDIES OPERATION: the CN may sail to the West Indies box and attempt to pick up Supply and/or Artillery
- Each turn starting on the West Indies box, American rolls one die: 1-3 he instantly embarks 1Sup or 1Art, 4 he instantly embarks 2Sup or 2Art or one of each. If British BF are also on the box, add one (+1) for each Fleet to the die roll.
- the maximum it may carry is two units
- each time it enters, it must leave the West Indies on the first or second turn after its arrival
- Must transport these units back to the colonies. Once debarked, it may not transport the unit(s) again.
- British may send any number of BF to the West Indies to seek and destroy the CN. Both in the turn they arrive & (if CN remains) the following turn, British rolls one die: 1-3 they find the CN and naval combat commences.

CSG VI. Winter Turns

During winter turns (Jan., Feb., Mar.), restrictions are placed on both combat and movement.

MOVEMENT: Middle States (and border hexsides), New England, and Canada
- Land-units and Leaders beginning the Movement Phase in these Areas or debarking on Ports in these Areas have their MP allowance halved (rounded down). Any debarking on Ports are halved again (rounded down).
- Bateaux, TF and the CN may not move or transport land-units on class 1, 2, or 3 river or lake hexsides. However, they may embark/debark land-units, move on class 3 bay or coastal hexsides, and act as ferries normally.
  - CLARIFICATION: The last northern river frozen hexsides are: Susquehanna OO28/PP29, Delaware OO33/PP33, Hudson WW37/XX38, Connecticut BBB42/CCC43, St. Croix YYY56/ZZZ57. There are no bay hexsides on the St. Lawrence River.
- Forced Marches are not allowed (including into or out of Middle States)
MOVEMENT: Deep South and South Central (and border hexsides): class 2 rivers are only crossed by ferry
MOVEMENT: all Areas and Canada: no Automatic Elimination is allowed
COMBAT
- No unsupplied attacks are allowed. SP may still defend unsupplied, however, at half strength.
- combat is limited to TWO rounds per hex per Combat Phase

CSG VII. French Intervention

A. Uncertain Entry

TURN	NUMBER NEEDED
April/78	1
May/78	1
June/78	1, 2
July/78	1, 2, 3
August/78	1, 2, 3
Sept./78	1, 2, 3
Oct./78 and beyond	1, 2, 3, 4

B. Order of Battle

when French forces intervene, they have available the following French BFs and accompanying French forces:
- BF-A – D'Estaing, 4FR, 1Lt.Inf., 1Art, 1Sup
- BF-B – Rochambeau, Ldr.A, 4FR, 1Lt.Inf., 1Art, 1Sup
- 1Sup on the French West Indies box
- BF-VF – Ldr.B, Ldr.C, 5FR, 1Art, 1Sup initially, then 1Sup each additional appearance (rule V.E.)
- CLARIFICATION: Allow these Fleets to temporarily violate transport capacities until initial debarking. Overloaded, they may not enter an uncontrolled Port without enough MPs to debark. Once they do, they must immediately debark to within capacities.
The American places the BF-A and BF-B on the board in, or any turn after, the turn of French intervention. At start of the American Segment, these BF are placed stacked together on the first row of hexes in either the South or East sea exits, or on the West Indies OBM Chart box.
- placed on the West Indies, they can embark the 1Sup but first the BF must debark at least 3 capacity points of units

C. Deployment

French land forces may operate independently of the BF transporting them
when engaged in combat, American/French Supply may be used interchangeably
When building or reducing a Magazine, the same nationality must be retained. If building a Magazine from both nationalities, the American may choose which one will be created.
Whenever a BF begins its turn on an OBM Chart box marked "FR," it may embark 1Sup (if not already loaded to capacity) if there is a French Supply available. It may not move for that turn.

D. West Indies Commitment

whenever French BF or FR move (or Withdraw) into the West Indies box, the British must send an equal number of BF and BR into the West Indies box by the route that requires the fewest Movement Phases to move, embark and transport them
- if French BF are initially placed on the West Indies, the British only have to match BF and FR that debarked
1. at start of his Movement Phase the British calculates the minimum number of turns required
  - must assume all enemy forces will not move or attack
  - must allow for delays caused by entering enemy-occupied hexes or hexsides
  - if quicker, he must move through enemy units instead of around them
2. at end of his Movement Phase that number of turns must be lower than in step 1.
all forces on both sides (not TF) sent to the West Indies are required to remain there until the 3rd turn after arrival
- if French BF are initially placed on the West Indies, only BF and FR that debarked must remain
The British are required to maintain matching forces in the West Indies for as long as French forces remain there. However, if all French BF move out of the West Indies, the British are relieved of the matching obligation until the French commit again.
Matching of naval forces is executed in terms of Fleet counters, not naval combat SP. Matching of land forces is in terms of combat SP. Ignore Artillery and Supply for this determination.

E. Withdrawal

If, due to combat, one or more French BF are ever sunk, ALL FR and French Artillery in North America must be transported to the West Indies and debarked there using the remaining BF.

They must attempt to move, embark and transport them by the most direct route possible in the same manner as the British sending matching forces to the West Indies. Failure to do this results in the immediate elimination of all FR, Artillery and BF.
if no French BF are on the board, all FR & French Artillery in North America are eliminated at end of the current Segment
any arriving Fleets (BF-VF or repaired BF) with embarked units are immediately placed on the southernmost OBM Transitional box and must move to the West Indies box as quickly as possible
once all the FR and Artillery in North America have been debarked, French BF are free to operate normally

CSG VIII. Optional Rules

A. Intrinsic Artillery in Forts

A Fort has an intrinsic value of 1Art that gives defending force –1 DRM (in addition to other DRMs) for first round of combat. If supply is used, the DRM may be applied for all rounds of combat.
When dismantling a Fort, the player has the option of taking the intrinsic Artillery with him. He dismantles Fort and places 1Art on the same hex. The Artillery may move the turn after Fort is dismantled.

B. Supply Movement

Supply moving into a clear hex without a Town costs 2 MP & into a swamp hex costs 4 MP

C. French Intervention and Forces

Use of these rules requires the Campaign Game Time Record Chart to include an extra year, 1781.

SEASONAL: the following French forces are available short-term for the American player
- August 1778: BF-A and BF-B, each carrying 3FR, 1Lt.Inf., 1Art, 1Sup, plus D'Estaing and Ldr.A are all placed on the EAST OBM box at start of American turn. These must be removed from the map at end of the November turn.
- August 1779: BF-A and BF-B, each carrying 3FR, 1Lt.Inf., 1Art, 1Sup, plus D'Estaing and Ldr.B are all placed on the SOUTH OBM box at start of American turn. These must be removed from the map at end of the November turn.
- August 1781: BF-VF carrying Ldr.C, 3FR, 1Lt.Inf., 1Art, 1Sup is placed on the SOUTH OBM box at start of American turn. These must be removed from the map at end of the November turn.
- if any Seasonal Fleet is sunk, ALL remaining Seasonal forces must be immediately removed from the map
PERMANENT: the following French forces are permanent forces
- July 1780: BF-A and BF-B carrying a TOTAL of 8FR, 1Lt.Inf., 2Art, 1Sup, Rochambeau and Ldrs. A & B are all placed on the EAST OBM box at start of American turn
- May 1781: 2Sup are placed at a French-occupied Port (not West Indies)
- French may receive additional French Supply on the Transitional boxes labeled "FR" (see normal rules)
French Intervention must be rolled for normally. For every turn the French do not intervene, the August 1778 Seasonal forces are delayed a turn. This continues up to the November 1778 turn. If the French do not intervene by then, these French forces are unavailable. The same applies to the August 1779 Seasonal forces if intervention has not yet occurred.
under rule VII.D. WEST INDIES COMMITMENT, the British must still match anything the French place there
use the 1779 column of the CA Winter Reduction Rates chart for the winter 1780 turn
continue British and American reinforcements/replacements throughout the year 1781
eliminate end of game (Dec. '80) victory conditions and use them at revised end of game (Dec. '81) instead

Scenarios

West Indies: British may have no more than 2BF there and French BF-VF may not enter
damaged French Fleets reappear on the Right Transitional Box in the OBM chart during the Winter Interphase

at start of each British turn, roll one die on the Weather Table to determine the weather for that month:

MONTH	DIE ROLL = WEATHER
Jan.	1 = Clear, 2-6 = Storms
Feb. and Dec.	1-2 = Clear, 3-6 = Storms
Mar. and Nov.	1-3 = Clear, 4-6 = Storms
Apr. and Oct.	1-4 = Clear, 5-6 = Storms
May to Aug.	automatically Clear
Sep.	1-5 = Clear, 6 = Storms

during Clear Weather turns,
- MP allowances for Fleets are doubled
- if entering OBM box with 30 MP or more, you may move to adjacent box
- if starting on OBM box, you may move 2 boxes
- if starting on OBM box adjacent to South, East, North, or Halifax boxes, you may move through one of those boxes & enter map with printed MP allowance (less 1) remaining.
Fleets in West Indies at end of a Sep., Oct. or Nov. turn are automatically sunk by hurricanes
French BF-A & BF-B
- beginning Jan. '80, must sail directly to the West Indies and stay until Aug. '80
- at start of American Aug. '80 turn, move both (with their original embarked units) directly to the South OBM box and roll 1 die for each Fleet: 1 free to move normally; 2-5 remove Fleet/embarked units from board and place them on Turn-Track at Winter Interphase; 6 remove to Left Transitional Box but can't move
- at start of American Sep. '80 & Oct. '80 turns, if either is on Left Transitional Box by rolling a 6, roll 1 die for each: 1 free to move normally; 2-5 remove Fleet/embarked units from board and place them on Turn-Track at Winter Interphase; 6 can't move
- at start of Nov. '80 turn, if still on Left Transitional Box, it may move normally
- at end of Dec. '80 turn & Dec. '81 turn: both (not sunk or on Turn-Track) must be on an OBM box or game ends in British victory
- WINTER Interphase, Fleets (with their cargo) on Turn-Track at Winter Interphase space are placed on the Right Transitional Box in the OBM chart
- beginning Jan. '81, if not sunk or on Turn-Track, must sail directly to the West Indies and stay until Aug. '81
French BF-VF
- Aug. '80 thru Jun. '81, if in Newport, can only move by the following PROCEDURE:
  1. if all the following applies at start of American turn, go to step 2.
    - Clear weather
    - total BF combat ratings in Newport exceed total in New York
    - 3FR from reinforcements K have not disembarked in South Central and/or Deep South
    - no BF in New York or, if any BF in New York, British roll one die resulting in a 6 (dr 1-5 BF was intercepted & forced to return to Newport)
  2. transport Ldr.C, 3FR, 1Sup from reinforcements K to southern map then move normally except further transporting is prohibited until Aug. '81
- beginning Aug. '81,
  - if moved, it may transport any Artillery or Supply at Newport to South Central only
  - if NOT moved, it may transport Ldr.C & 3FR from reinforcements K plus any Artillery or Supply at Newport to southern map (no other transporting allowed) or move normally without transporting
only South Central and Deep South Rate Charts are used and their CA AVG. and MAX. boxes are changed to "1"

PROCEDURE for Seasonal Interphase:

adjust VP totals per Victory Point table
same as CSG step 1. except use CA Winter Reduction Rate for 1777

Check ASC and adjust Status Indicator counters for both Areas. Units embarked on Fleets are not considered in an Area.

AREA STATUS	CA	RM	TM
NO BR in Area	Maximum	Minimum	Maximum
NO Strategic Towns controlled, NO CA in Area	Maximum	Average	Average
Some Strategic Towns controlled, NO CA in Area	Minimum	Average	Minimum
NO Strategic Towns controlled, CA in Area	Average	Maximum	Average
Some Strategic Towns controlled, CA in Area	Average	Average	Average
ALL Strategic Towns controlled	NONE	Average	Minimum
ALL Strategic Towns & Ports controlled	NONE	Minimum*	Minimum

* If lower than the allowable level, can't be increased to that level.

same as CSG step 9. except change PROCEDURE to:
1. enter CA reinforcements per Rate Chart placing them on or within 1 hex of a Strategic Town not British-controlled
2. SPRING: enter 1 American Supply to each uncontrolled Area in the same manner as CA
3. adjust RM/RD SP per Rate Chart placing new units (not reinforcements E and F – see step 4.9.) on or within 1 hex of Strategic Towns or Ports uncontrolled by British
  - if all Strategic Towns & Ports in Deep South are British-controlled, RM may be brought up to Minimum by entering Partisan SP
  - RD may replace new or existing RM at following rate: 1RD for 1-4RM allowed on Rate Chart
    - if number of RD exceeds this level at start of Interphase, eliminate or replace them to the proper level
4. SPRING, SUMMER and FALL: enter 1 British Supply on Charleston if British-controlled
5. enter 2BR on one British-controlled Port
6. WINTER: enter 1BR on Charleston if British-controlled
7. 1780 SUMMER: British place 1 or 2 BI replacements at any hex if any were lost
8. adjust TM/TD SP (not Ferguson's Provincials (FP) or Watson's TD) per Rate Chart placing new units on British-controlled Strategic Towns
  - if none, place them on Strategic Towns unoccupied by enemy units
    - if all Strategic Towns are enemy-occupied, place them on adjacent hexes of Strategic Towns
  - TD may replace new or existing TM in the same manner as RD and are adjusted in the same manner as RD
9. if available, enter reinforcements E and F
10. place 1 or 2 FP replacements with Ferguson if any were lost
11. place Watson's TD replacement with Watson if it was lost
captured Leaders may be exchanged equally (1-star for 1-star, 2-star for 2-star) & immediately placed anywhere
nameless Leaders anywhere may be relocated to any hex – British first

VICTORY CONDITIONS

AMERICAN wins
1. at end of any turn starting Sep. '80 if Fort at Charleston is free of BR inside
2. at end of Oct. '80 turn, if Clinton, Leslie and 10BR have not been EVACUATED
3. instantly if French BF occupies Port at New York free of British BF
4. at end of game if he has same or more VP than British
BRITISH wins
1. at end of turn if he controls all 12 Strategic Towns & friendly BF occupies Port at New York
2. instantly if he captures or kills Washington
3. at end of Dec. '80 turn or end of game if either French BF-A or BF-B is on the board but not in an OBM box
4. at end of game if he has more VP than American

B. OPTIONAL RULES

if American is weaker, add "during Interphase, control Annapolis & Baltimore +5 VP" to American Action on VP table
if American is weaker, in step 9. of first Interphase that Ferguson & 2FP are on the board American places 2RM & 2RD to within 8 hexes of Ferguson
- in step 9. of each Interphase, American places 1 to 4 RM/RD replacements to within 8 hexes of Ferguson if any were lost

CSG-7 The 1813 Campaign

CREDITS: Scenario Design & Research: Jim Lawler. Rules & notes are in the Boardgamer - Vol. 9, No. 3.

INTRODUCTION: This scenario covers the War of 1812 Northern Campaign in the year 1813.

COMPONENTS

MAPBOARD: the board used is the "Crucible of Liberty" mapboard (see Galvez Scenarios)
PLAYING PIECES: Players must obtain an expansion counter set to use in conjunction with some of the original 1776 pieces. Included are several new types of counters such as naval Leaders and small gunships.

The new counters to play this campaign game are in the Boardgamer - Vol. 9, No. 3.

Scenarios V. #13, #14, #15, CSG-8 – Galvez Scenarios – 1779 to 1781

CREDITS: Scenario Design & Research: Jim Lawler, Jim Caudle, J.F. Engler. Rules & notes are in Old Soldiers magazine - Vol. 1, No. 4.

MAPBOARD: The board consists of the original 1776 mapboard extended to include America west to the Mississippi River and several hundred miles beyond that, so that New Orleans, St. Louis, and upper Great Lakes are now included. Depicted on the map are terrain features, settlements and Forts for the French & Indian War, American Revolution, and the War of 1812.

The new mapboard is entitled "Crucible of Liberty" and can be downloaded in Cyberboard gamebox form from the Yankee Air Pirates website.

PLAYING PIECES: Players must obtain a new set of counters to play these scenarios. Included are several new types of counters such as independent companies, stockades, piroux (small bateaux) and raid markers.

Printed and laminated counter sheets are available through OLD SOLDIERS magazine.
