What this is
Four sides maneuver & battle to control colonies in America's War for Independence. The game is quicker (being 2-4 player) and the intermingling of units at the beginning of the game allows the action to start immediately. In 1775: Rebellion, players take the roles of the American Continental Army and Patriots against the British Army and the Loyalists.
