Battle of Niagara Falls

== Battle of Niagara Falls ==
The Battle of Niagara Falls was a major offensive battle led by the Appalachian remnants attacking the Seaboard defensive installment in the city. It was detrimental in that its result directly determined whether the Appalachian forces would be able to re-instill control over the region after being occupied by Seaboard for nearly two years.
Following the decisive Battle of Harrisburg in which the Harrisburg Committee lost control of their capital, the rest of the Appalachian fighting force was, for the most part, dissolved. After significant work to regroup, the three readily available divisions were commanded by relatively inexperienced officers. Despite this, with help of the Canadian military intel and others, they were able to create and execute an effective battle plan.
Appalachian forces overran the Seaboard installment commanded by General Godwin. The majority of the fighting force retreated to Batavia, NY, under the command of Colonel Russel, however.
