This download is actually a folder with a 3 different missions that occured in the American Revolution. They are numbered 1 to 3 so that if they somehow get in alphabetical order you'll know which one to play first.
==Three missions==
1.Battle of Lexington:Play as British.
2.Battle of Ticanderoga:Play as Americans.
3.Battle of Bunker Hill:Play as British.
Notice this is only a demo. I should hopefully have the full thing out fairly soon. Also note that these are the three easy missions in the whole thing. They will get harder as thye go along in the full version.
==To install==
When you install this you do it sort of like if you were installing any normal single player scenario. However it is a bit different. Instead of taking out all the files in the folder take the whole folder and put it in the Rise of Nations folder.That way you can go to Play Scenario. Then you should see a whole bunch of folders above the scenarios you already have. Among those folders you should see one that says "Revolutionary War Demo" Open it and then you should see the tree missions. Just play them in order.
Hope you have fun with it. Please tell me what you think of it. Thanks.

The first 2 battles all you have to do is just stand still and win. In the 3rd you just move your troops and they do the work.

Yeah anyone can have a vast plain. In the thrid one all you had was one city with a few buildings. BEsides isn't Boston a big city for the time. A few houses would have helped.

Easy to play. Not much to do.
Balance: 3
The forces were fairly well balanced. If you use any tactics it becomes lopsided in your favor.
Creativity: 3
Good idea for a series, good choice of battles, but needs something to make it original.
Map Design: 1
Bare grass mostly.

Not much given. Guess you're assuming we all know American Revolutionary War history.
Additional Comments:
I would've waited before uploading these until at least doing something with the maps. These look lie they took a bout 10 minutes at most.
