Welcome to the Alternate American Revolution! Road Patriots is a skirmish-style wargame set in an alternate version of 1776 Colonial America. In this version of the colonies, the revolution is about to be in full swing. Colonists are preparing to fight the British and claim America as their own country. However, there is one subtle difference. Both sides of the war have cars--cars that run on steam engines. These cars were used extensively in battles. They often had mounted cannons and muskets. Riders were militia and continentals wielding sabers. Welcome to the world of vehicular combat during the American Revolution. —description from the publisher
