### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Not the best Colonial era skirmish rules out there!
  

*by M***H on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 17 February 2019*

First I must declare that I have not played these rules, I have just read them through a couple of times. I am reviewing based on my impression.A fairly standard set of skirmish Colonial era rules. No astonishing new mechanisms. The "European" or regular troops all appear to be reasonable. Where the rules fail for me is in the way they treat the "native" troops - they are all cardboard cutouts with very little differentiation or enhanced abilities. I know these rules are intended to be Hollywood's version of history but decent writers could of at least brought a degree of historical accuracy into them!As a rule I like Osprey's sets of wargames rules but not this one!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    not another period change...
  

*by R***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 3 February 2020*

Whilst these rules from osprey are another generation up from Pikeman's lament it has some radically different processes and another layer of complexity; not always what people look for but then no two wargamers are alike, thank god.The method of command and control is significantly different and seems to nod at earlier rival systems (a mix of warmaster/black powder with enough changes to claim uniqueness), and removal of casualties is less brutal than earlier titles from osprey. Whilst my jury is still out there are a number of fellow gamers play this at our club all the time)

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 4 May 2018*

Excellent set of rules for running small scale colonial patrol games. S fast and fun game which is easy to get into as only a relatively small number of figures needed, eg. a Royal Navy landing party for the likes of the Sudan requires 36 figures and a gatling or gardner gun. The author suggests the game plays particularly well in 15mm, although many will opt for 28mm using the popular multi-part plastic figures now available.
