Wargame Scenarios Involving Indians

Creek and Choctaw:
Pensacola in West Florida

by Rudy Scott Nelson


Background

After the Spanish captured Mobile, their next objective was the West Florida capital at Pensacola. A large force of 400-500 Creek and Choctaw Indians responded to the call for help to defend the fort. The attack did not occur and the British commander did not compensate the warriors for their time and supplies. As a result when the next call for aid was issued very few warriors responded and the fort fell to the Spanish. The what if scenario for the situation of Indian aid can result in a very bloody battle.
