Hi all I'm looking for maps and OBs for this engagement. Any help, please. |

British Grenadier has in their scenario 4 book, IIRC. |

link includes a German map of the battlefield from the period and a partial American OB here link and the Wiki article does list at least some of the British units engaged, which will give you some clues as to what other units might have been there under those same commanders. A lot of details, including a little bit more on the OB here: PDF link Not finding a solid, complete OB, though for either side. What you'll likely have to do is follow the 1777 campaign and interpolate the forces based on the previous and follow-on engagements (or what forces Washington arrived at Valley Forge with) to determine what's there. Follow the various commanders to determine who was under their command. |

The Driving tour is great. I've developed an interest in action on the American left around Jenkintown. As I live only few miles from the battle field. |

The British Grenadier scenarios are excellent. So many different actions are covered and are so very well done. |

Hey Grumpy, I know some guys who live by the battlefield and are knowledgeable. The german map's portrayal of the battlefield is as good as its portrayal of, say, Waterloo or Kedesh. The pdf by the PhilMont Christian Academy is nicely done. Prob the easiest thing to do is ping this guy's blog: ecw40mmproject.blogspot.com he and his pals have worked on it a bit. I'd say that it will make for an excellent small game, as well as an excellent "what if" for small and a couple of large battles. |

Living a few miles from there, I'd say it makes for a lot of fun on the table top. British Grenadier rules and scenario books are a good product. Eric |
