Game Overview
SGS We The People is a complete stand-alone game that covers the American Revolutionary war from April 1775 to September 1783. The game covers the whole war from 1775, using a system of two week turns. The players have to use wisely their financial resources to spend their resources in new units or in replacements for weakened units to avoid their destruction. But it is not possible to rebuild every lost unit or to replace it. Cards play also a key role in the game as they bring some variation in the different fields, such as reinforcements, economics, diplomacy, politics, popular support and, above all, combat. The player will also find in the game nice historical events that bring ‘chrome’ to the game and helps you to feel the historical moment represented. The knowledge, experience and background of the designer, Stephen Dunn, has been essential in creating and supporting the development of this game, assisted by the SGS team. A lot of bibliography and data was collected to support the research needed to develop this game so that it feels accurate. We plan to also provide the players with interesting options to explore potential what-if situations. The goal of the game is to recreate the different phases of the war, either in a complete grand campaign covering the whole actual duration, or in shorter scenarios set at different starting points, such as:
- 1775 Grand Campaign: The entire war, starting with the Militia army facing the British Army in Boston following the skirmishes at Lexington and Concord, and ending with the Treat of Paris in 1783. This campaign scenario lasts 104 months (May 1775 to December 1783). [208 turns]
- 1775 Canada Invasion: The scenario covers the aborted attempt by the Americans to conquer Canada during the fall and winter of 1775. It was the first major military initiative by the Americans during the Revolutionary War. After some early success by revolutionary forces, British and Canadian forces totally defeated the invasion. This scenario lasts 7 months (September 1775 to March 1776) [14 turns]
- 1777 Saratoga Scenario: In the summer of 1777, the British launched a new expedition from Canada. Led by General Burgoyne, the intention was to seize the Lake Champlain and Hudson River corridor, effectively isolating New England from the rest of the American colonies. This scenario lasts 7 months (May 1777 to November 1777). [14 turns]
