Description ▲
The essence of these rules is individuality. Each figure represents one man, and can therefore be given individual characteristics to reproduce his abilities and experience. Games represent the critical point in one sector of a general engagement, or a clash between small parties of scouts.
The colonial period is remarkable for the variety of actions that can be reproduced. With these rules, actions from the familiar British North-West Frontier and African wars, and from the unfamiliar French operations in Madagascar or Russian siege of Geok Tepe can all be fought
