Siege of Fort Niagara
Download Link: This scenario depicts the English siege of French-occupied Fort Niagara in 1759. This scenario will be as historically correct as I can manage. Situated on the shores of Lake Ontario, Fort Niagara was As the British gathered forces at Oswego, the Iroquois formed a military alliance with the British, hoping to weaken the French position in the Ohio. On July 10, 1759, Brigadier General John Prideaux laid siege to Niagara. The defence of the fort was lead by Captain Pierre Pouchot. If Niagara fell, the French would lose their portage route to Lake Erie. -You assume the role of the British besiegeing force. -Fort Niagara is located on high ground, and is protected by three outworks and a main bastion. The French have cannons and many defenders on the walls, so storming the fort soley with infantry is not a viable option. You will need to use your howitzers to bring the defences down. -Bring the General to the center of the fort. -I am basing the map off of an old battle diagram of Fort Niagra. -Botolf [This message has been edited by Botolf (edited 06-17-2006 @ 01:42 AM).]

-You must finish the trench system in order for your mortars to come within range of Niagara's outworks.
-Your siege trenches border Lake Ontario.
-The portage road runs along the shore of the Niagara River. Opening Cinematic
