Expanding the Empire
March across the plains of southern Texas with the 4th US Infantry which
included in its ranks the young Lieutenant Sam Grant. Accompany the
elite US Engineers, its members including Lee, Beauregard, McClellan,
Joe Johnston and other soon-to-be-famous officers, as they pry into the
Mexican dispositions to find an opening that would lead to victory.
Bounce across the arroyos at Buena Vista on the seat of a caisson in a
battery commanded by Captain Braxton Bragg, or ride with the US Dragoons
alongside Dick Ewell, back in the days when he still had hair--and both
legs! Mexican-American War is a tactical level simulation of this
conflict using the Early American Wars engine.
The war with Mexico presents some fascinating parallels and contrasts
with our current history. Mexico in 1846 had a standing army of about
35,000 men, while the Regular Army of the United States mustered only
about 7,000 soldiers, with most of them scattered across the western
borders of the country, protecting settlers and battling Indians.
Employing advanced tactics and superior technology, especially that of
the artillery, the US prevailed. Luck, boldness, and skill had something
to do with it, too.
You have an opportunity with this game to rewrite the history of a
forgotten war, fought in 1846 and 1847 between The United States of
America and the nation of Mexico. In scope, in the sweeping panorama of
deserts and mountains, from lush California to Mexico City's verdant
basin, it is unrivaled in the Western Hemisphere, even by the American
Civil War which began only fifteen years later. From Texas to the
Pacific, from Northern California to Central Mexico, battles, skirmishes
- and diplomacy - over a period of two years determined the ultimate
outline of the continental United States as we know it today. You will
also do battle in a conflict only slightly better known to Americans -
the Texas War of Independence, fought in 1835-36. From "Come and Take
It!" to "Remember the Alamo," you will fight until the decisive battle
of San Jacinto settles the issue.
