One Volley Set the World on Fire

The volley fired by a young Virginian in the backwoods of America set the world on fire.
Horace Walpole

A skirmish in the Pennsylvania wilderness pulled every power in Europe into the first truly global war. Flintlock! puts both halves of it on your table — two tug-of-war skirmishes you can play separately, together, or alone.
