About The Alamo

"183 grim-faced Texans volunteer for certain death to delay and decimate a besieging force of 2,000 highly trained Mexican regular infantry under the command of the ferocious Santa Anna." A fun fast paced game. What could be better, Travis, Crockett, Bowie and their fellow Texans vs. a horde of Mexicans. As the Texans you know you are going to be wiped out, the question is how many Mexicans can you take with you?
