Strategy & Tactics #340 – French & Indian War Battles is a tactical two-player wargame simulating several battles of the Seven Years’ War in the North American theater (1754–1763), known as the French & Indian War. This conflict opposed French and British forces and their respective Native American allies in a decisive struggle for control of the continent.

Players recreate historical engagements by commanding units across battlefields representing 18th-century warfare conditions. Success depends on effective maneuver, terrain exploitation, and tactical decision-making.
