Causes of the American Revolution Game

Create a board game called "The Shot Heard 'round the World".   You design the game and make the rules.  Remember, the purpose of the game is to teach the player(s) about causes of the American Revolution.  You may use cards, dice, etc, to move the player along the game. 

Items on the game must include:
The French and Indian War
Proclamation of 1763
Taxes (sugar, stamp, Townshend, tea)
Writs of Assistance
Vice-Admiralty Courts
Quartering Act
Boston Massacre
Boston Tea Party
The Intolerable Acts
Lexington and Concord (Shot heard 'round the world)

Think of the game as a timeline.  Each of the laws and events above are in order as they happened.
So the game should start with the French and Indian War and should end with the battle of Lexington and Concord.

Example:  a player might land on a space that says you were arrested for smuggling and must stand trial in a Vice-Admiralty court-  you are sent to england, lose a turn. 
In this example, the player learned that smugglers stood trial in Vice-Admiralty courts and that you had to be sent to England to do so.
