... and remember in FIW you can refight a battle fought on that day in history.

030.Lake George_d.scn Happy St. Patty's Day!

7:00am March 18th, 1757. --- Historical --- Damaging a fort in winter will cripple its offensive capabilities during the summer. Valuable time, money and men will be used to rebuild what is destroyed rather than attack the enemy. It is with this in mind that the French launch a quick raid at Fort William Henry. Planned to strike the day after St. Patrick's Day to, hopefully, catch the predominately Irish garrison sleeping one off. First player to move: French.

Enjoy!

Al,

7:00am March 18th, 1757 is the day after St. Patricks Day. March 17 is the correct day. So, is the scenario description wrong or are you still sloshed with <font color="red"><b>Firewater</b></font id="red">?

Paul,

Historical incident, "It is with this in mind that the French launch a quick raid at Fort William Henry. Planned to strike the day after St. Patrick's Day to, hopefully, catch the predominately Irish garrison sleeping one off."

The actual event resulted in some outbuildings destroyed by fire.
