Think you have what it takes to change the course of history?
It is July 1776. What began as protests and political unrest in the North American colonies has escalated into open rebellion. In a string of surprising early victories, the newly formed Continental Army has driven British troops from Boston, forced royal governors into exile, and repelled a British assault on Charleston.
Join us for a historical wargame in commemoration of America's 250th anniversary where you step into the shoes of military commanders, political leaders, and diplomats as the fate of a nation hangs in the balance.
Players can take on roles representing the Continental United States, the Kingdom of Great Britain, the Kingdom of France, the Kingdom of Spain, and the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. If enough players join, each of the 13 colonies will have their own representative at the table.

What is a Wargame?
A wargame is an immersive role-playing simulation where participants step into the shoes of real historical figures and navigate the political, military, and diplomatic challenges of a given moment in history. Players work within teams to strategize, negotiate, and compete against one another to achieve their faction's goals. No prior experience is needed.
