#UnboxingDay! A Dutiful Fight
A Dutiful Fight: The Battle of Châteauguay, October 26, 1813, from designer Paul Rohrbaugh at High Flying Dice Games, is the latest game in the Battles for Canada series. As volume 8 in the series, A Dutiful Fight covers the United States offensive during the War of 1812 to capture Montreal. The game gives you a chance to rewrite history and push the US forces through British, Canadian and First Nation forces or confirm historical events by frustrating the US battle plan.

First Impressions: A Dutiful Fight: The Battle of Châteauguay, October 26, 1813

In addition to the fast gameplay, there were a couple more things I really appreciated in A Dutiful Fight: the effects of terrain and morale on the game. I think they suited the subject matter well. It was easy to imagine troops slogging through a difficult, unfamiliar landscape while Indigenous warriors and local militia travel lightly and quickly through their home terrain. It was also easy to imagine that US morale wasn’t particularly high, based on the conditions and harassing attacks from the enemy.
