- Twenty years prior to the Revolutionary War, the British, French and Native American Empires seek to possess the American wilderness. Conflict ignites as 22-year-old George Washington steps onto the world stage as the murderer of a French emissary. In the subsequent battle of Fort Necessity, the emissary's brother leads a French army that defeats Washington. These events lead to the 1755 campaign of British General Edward Braddock and George Washington against the French in the wilderness. With the British a day away, a charismatic French officer leads his French/Indian force in an improbable attack on Braddock's column. The resulting battle will change American history.
- In 1754, the Royal Governor of Virginia orders young George Washington to build a road to the Ohio River, enforce Virginia's claims to the Ohio River Valley and defend a small British fort against French invaders. When Washington and his men arrive at the post, they discovers that it had fallen to French colonial forces. Although his small army is inexperienced and outnumbered, Washington chooses to attack the enemy and he soon learns that war is not just a manly adventure and actions can have dire consequences - such as igniting the French and Indian War.
