Redcoats

Redcoats is an all-graphic wargame, for either 1 or 2 players, set during the American war of independence. This version of the game will run on either the BBC or the Electron home computer.

The program allows for full use of cavalry, infantry and artillery forces, and contains five different battle scenarios as well as the facility to modify or create your own scenarios. It is important to follow the loading instructions on the cassette shell, together with any messages displayed on the screen during loading. This is especially important when loading in the battle scenarios.

Between 1775 and 1783, the British and Americans fought for possession of the American colonies. This game reproduces some of the battles that took place in this period.
