File:Quebec 1759 (v0.4).vmod

An original wargame created as a final thesis in the Command & General Staff College Wargaming MMAS program. The designer is MAJ Joseph A. Henderson. The British campaign to capture the French fortress city of Quebec in 1759 led to the decisive battle of the French and Indian War, and paved the way for British domination of North America for the next twenty years. While the ultimate battle on the Plains of Abraham is known to most scholars, the campaign along the St. Lawrence River that led up to the battle provides many lessons of operational level leadership that are still relevant today: maneuvering forces and securing lines of operation, integrating land and naval forces in joint operations, massing forces at the decisive point, simultaneity in operations, and the strategic use of key terrain. This game was created in VASSAL by Mr. Curt Pangracs, Directorate of Simulation Education, Army University, US Department of Defense.
