On December 4th 1837, William Lyon Mackenzie led a group of rebellious Upper Canadians in an attack upon Queens Park, the head of government in Upper Canada. Despite being both outnumbered and out gunned the rebels were able to prevail. Why did this happen, what factors caused loyal British subjects to take arms against the government they had sworn allegiance to? More importantly how was it that a small contingent of farmers were able to defeat the forces charged with guarding the city of Toronto?

Thanks for the compliments, they are appreciated.
The second scenario is actually fairly easy, what confuses most players is how different the scenario is from a standard scenario. I am not sure if you have recognized this or not but you can move the target reticules, they are not stationary. The cannons on the acropolis will target the reticules, however, the speed in which a cannon retargets after a reticule is moved is related to the number of operators working on the cannon. The best strategy is to move all 4 reticules to positions where the enemy forces tend to bunch up and activate the cannons only when enemy troops are near the reticule. It best to keep the reticules in their respective areas though. Moving a reticule so it defends from another direction, ie/ moving the south reticule to the east may help in defeating forces from the east, but it will leave the southern flank exposed.
If you continue to have problems you can always type “win” in the chat window and skip to the next scenario.
