Historical. British General Howe began his campaign by taking his army down the American coastline and landing it south of Philadelphia. American General Washington responded in an attempt to block the British advance at the Brandywine Creek. Washington thought he had all of the fords covered, but Howe and Cornwallis crossed at a ford beyond the flank of the American army. The American army was almost destroyed by this attack, but responded in a way that gave the army confidence in its ability to respond to a crisis. In this modified version of the OOB the militia are armed with muskets.
