There is very little information available out there on the Southern Campaigns during the American Revolution in 1779. The campaign saw a interesting variety of unusual regiments and small number of men which makes gaming it very attractive. In addition it is one of the few times you can field a French army! The following article was published in the magazine "Gorget and Sash" volume 3 number 2. It about the siege of Savannah and specifically the storming of the Spring Hill Redoubt. Great article and all the basic information you need to fight out this interesting battle.
Looks like an interesting action Mark. Have you ever come across the book "Cassells Biographical Dictionary of the American War of Independence" written by Mark M Boatner an ex Colonel and Assistant professor of Military History at Westpoint? Its a fantastic resource and includes a brief outline of many smaller battles and skirmishes as well as the more well known battles and loads of other useful information - and is also surprisingly even handed in its handling of the subject matter.
