Report an issueRebels and Redcoats recreates the battlefields of the American Revolutionary War. The war began in 1775 when the American colonies rebelled against the British Empire, declaring their independence in 1776. In the following years, Britain tried to end the revolt and recapture the American territories. The rebels however had support from Europe, with France and Spain later joining the war as allies to their cause. A decisive American victory at Yorktown in 1781 broke the British resolve and was a catalyst in starting peace negotiations. The war ended in 1783 with the signing of the Treaty of Paris and global recognition of the sovereignty of the United States.

8 of 13Love this game. Would like to see a French and Indian War game like it.
After multiple tries the game is zoomed in and now I cannot get my money back
This game cost me six dollars it is not Worth the price
Battle after battle have outrageous victory conditions. Did anybody play test the game (or study Am history). One battle allows you to insert the same unit 100...200...more times! Certainly makes it tough for the Americans to lose 50% of their army when you can out number the British 100 to 1. Avoid the Rebel and Redcoats games (all versions) until they FIX it!!! Try playing Harlem Heights, King's Mountain or Guilford Courthouse as examples. It's value in almost nil as you search for decent victory conditions- 1 of 3 battles maybe playable - but finding them is not worth the time.
16 turns not enough for the Brandywine scenario as the American player. Also, meeting the Brooklyn victory conditions do not give the American player a victory! Two scenarios share the same map and victory conditions, the only difference is that the opponents begin closer to each other in one of the scenarios. Overall very easy for the British, very hard for the Americans. I own many games by this developer, and know they can do better.
Even after attempting several options, there was no American win ,nor close win, in this scenario. This scenario needs major repair and someone to test it.
I have downloaded this app several times, only for it to open, and freeze. Not real happy about it....
Just bought the game, click on the icon and it opens to “Rebe” completely zoomed in with no ability to navigate. Complete fraud.
