These counters will increase the strategy needed to play the Campaign Game and make the scenarios more challenging and enjoyable.

There were no great generals that dominated the American Revolution, but there were a number of competent officers, as well as incompetent ones, on each side. The concept put forth would have the major leaders of the war (Washington, Gates, Greene, Cornwallis, Howe, etc.) represented in combat as realistically as possible.

Adding these leaders to the game adds realism in a number of ways, such as controlling the movement of troops, their effect on combat, and the difficulty of trying to deal with incompetent generals who hold higher rank than more competent men. The counters have values representing the rank and various abilities of the individual leaders: along with their name, a movement factor, a combat effect number and the leader’s rank.
