The Alamo has fallen. With Goliad soon to be overrun, Houston is forced to make the painful decision to retreat in the face of a numerically superior enemy. With Mexican armies advancing and men deserting him at every turn. Houston has to keep the revolutionary spirit alive in these dark days of 1836, hoping to get a chance to turn the tide of war once and for all. Unable to match the Mexican forces toe to toe, Houston must keep retreating until his foe makes a mistake that he might be able to capitalize on. As he retreats east, Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna follows in Houston's wake, driving away anybody who challenges his rule in Mexico. However, as he nears Louisiana, Santa Anna realizes he has a chance to end this rebellion once and for all by capturing the Texian government which is on the run as well. This wild goose chase will take him to the banks of the San Jacinto River, isolating him from the rest of his forces. If Santa Anna dallies longer than necessary, Houston might have a chance to force a battle with the Mexican dictator on terms that favor the Texians....
