Has anyone used this set of rules for the AWI? How does it handle all of the irregular units like native Americans and militia etc?
Trying to decide on the rules for mainly 1777 Wilderness.

Have you looked at Wilderness Wars / Redcoats In the Wilderness, specifically designed for the period and scale of battle?

The TSATF variant "The Sword in the Forest" will handle that. Although originally designed for the FIW, it can be used for the American Revolution.

Muskets and Tomahawks would work well, although it is for large skirmishes, not big battles

I've found Sharp Practice to work pretty well, but not sure if yo could do anything like Brandywine with it.

This Very Ground by Iron Ivan is also pretty good, but again is more skirmish – however it may scale up pretty well

Try Guns of Liberty, an excellent set of rules for the AWI. Game scale is 1:25 for figures to men. It has a companion piece for the F&I war, called Guns of the Mohicans, which would help with handling irregulars like the Native Americans.
