The very thought of it horrifies me. I've been to the battlefield and they actually provide you with details of how teh battle was fought. It was an incredibly stupid and arrogant battle plan by the British that allowed the ragtags to kick their asses and convince others that we could win the war. Thank God for that.

Being a little bit of a history buff, I remember quite well about Saratoga. You would love Yorktown Battlefield.

Good luck today if playing anything.
