[Historical] 3:00 pm, Sunday, February 28th, 1847 Upon Colonel Doniphan's approach to Chihuahua he found General Heredia's men blocking the road. After a careful reconnaissance Doniphan swung his column off the road one-and-a-half miles from the Mexican entrenchments and proceeded to deploy for battle facing the left of the Mexican position, effectively turning Heredia's flank. Heredia repositioned his forces as best he could and the battle commenced. VPs: 10 points per 25 Inf; 20 points per 25 Cav; 20 points for each artillery piece; and 1 point per supply point. Heredia's camps are the rectangles marked off with five Mexican Supply Source hexes, and 10 point Objective hexes, each. The US will win by destroying the Mexican army, capturing their camps or exiting large forces off the map toward Chihuahua. The Mexicans will win by preventing all of the above.
