Engine Thieves: The Andrews Railroad Raid of 1862
Steal the train! Burn the bridges! Cut the telegraph wires! Help the Union Army! Play as the Union raiders in a solo race from Atlanta to Bridgeport, sabotaging railroad infrastructure, defeating Confederate units, and keeping casualties low while Confederate forces pursue the stolen locomotive. Reach Bridgeport and earn enough Victory Points before the time runs out, the train is abandoned, or the raiders are captured. In the two-player game, one player commands the Confederates and pursues the raiders, limiting their sabotage and preventing them from reaching safety.
