108 King’s Mountain (7 October 1780)

Had a surprise British win with an aggressive Ferguson smacking the units of Shelby, Sevier and Campbell whilst the rest of the Provincials just held the camp. With a good hand favouring Ferguson in the one sector his attacks with the Regulars and Lights force the Americans to respond and Ferguson was able to pick units off.

2 first quick battles (3 round for the 1st game) and the Crown wins : 6/0 and 6/1. the 3rd game played was at last a very close Continental victory 6/5. The presence of a lot of Militia units is a disadvantage for the Continental side. On the 3rd game, the first move on the left side was for reorganizing these units and make them more supported.
