Super Mario Storm is a sweet epic predominately enamored by the hard-ballin' of the Zorak. Press Start toiled long and hard on this one, so much so that he's still resting before he does #2.

History

The Mexican Army arrived on February 23, 1836 and was a mixed force of regular infantry and cavalry units as well as activo reserve infantry battalions. They were equipped with the British Brown Bess musket and were well-drilled, though the Mexican army discouraged individual marksmanship. The initial forces were equipped with several 6-pounder cannon. Several of the Mexican officers were European mercenary veterans, and General Santa Anna was a veteran of the Mexican War of Independence. The Mexican siege was scientific and professionally conducted.

The number of Mexican forces attacking the post was reported as high as 4,000 to 5,000, but only about 1,400 soldiers were used in the investment and the final assault. 6,500 soldiers did set out from San Luis de Potosi, but illness and desertion reduced the force. After a 13-day siege, the Mexican army attacked the post in four columns, starting at 6:30 a.m. on March 6 and took the Alamo by 8 a.m. that day under hand-to-hand fighting. One of the reasons the siege took 13 days was that the Mexican army did not have its 12-pounder cannons needed to breach the walls until late in the siege.

Lieutenant Colonel William Barret Travis, commander of the Texas regular army forces, was able to dispatch riders before the battle and as late as February 25, informing the Texas provisional government of his situation and requesting assistance. However, the Texas Army was not strong enough to fight through the Mexican Army and relieve the post. Colonel Fannin, commander of the Texas forces at Goliad, was forced to abort his relief march because he could not take his cannon with him.

Midway though the battle, 32 men were able to make it through Mexican lines and join the defenders.

Before the battle, Santa Anna ordered that a red flag be raised indicating to the defenders that no quarter would be given. Several defenders who had not been killed in battle were captured and executed. Among its defenders were James Bowie (the leader of the militia forces), Crockett and Travis. About two dozen women and children and two slaves at the Alamo, named Ben and Jim, were released.

Later in the war, General Santa Anna's army was defeated by a Texian force in the Battle of San Jacinto, who used the now-famous battle cry, "Remember the Alamo."
