Supply Lines of the American Revolution: The Northern Theater, 1775-1777

A two-player simulation of supply, logistics and maneuver in the northern theater of the early Revolutionary War. One side commands Patriot forces while the other represents the Crown; victory conditions change with the historical scenarios chosen. Play centers on protecting, moving, capturing and expending two types of supplies (wooden cubes): Food Supply to enable movement and War Supply to conduct combat. There is no hidden information, but flexible movement and decision sequencing allow bluffing and feints. The game emphasizes logistics choices and tactical risk, where bold plays can gain advantage and small mistakes can be exploited by a vigilant opponent.
