Captains!

We would like to introduce the first gameplay of the land battle. It is the Battle of Bunker Hill.

https://youtu.be/Kfqg0R35WEk

On June 16, 1775, the British attempted to break the American defensive line by attacking the militia's fortified positions at a hill. The defeat of the British in this assault, demonstrated the inability of the British to break the American siege. Though neither side could gain ground in land battle, time favored the British. Thanks to the Royal Navy and its command of the sea, the British army could be supplied and reinforced at will. The Americans, on the other hand, soon found themselves without the food or ammunition necessary to hold their positions.
Six months after the battle, "Washington's Navy" consisted of eleven vessels and captured some fifty-five prizes, provided much-needed supplies to the troops.
