Hi all -

Two underplayed areas in my wargaming history are the American Revolution and the War of 1812. Since I have a some free time this month, I though maybe I'd give a couple a try.

Anyone have suggestions on the best games for either of these periods?

Thanks!

There are less of them because anyone with half a brain as England can win either without some real limits placed on England. Kinda like how civil war games all have heavy control on the North so the South doesn't get bulldozed in 2 years.

I think the older game Take Command 2 still has a revolutionary war mod that was made for it that was pretty stable, I could be wrong on that one though.
