"The Great Game" Colonial Rules

[donnie]

Archived from groups: rec.games.miniatures.historical (More info?)

Has anyone used these? They're English and whilst they suffer from
some assumptions they're damn good and nicely laid out. Not the usual
standard of UK rules at all. Indeed they're also FREE.

Anyways I need some help with some of the "assumptions".

It turns out that the author of these rules is, to be charitable, an
important man who is too busy to help me. I have however run across
someone who knows the rules well and is prepared to help. So if anyone
else has read them then drop me an e-mail and I should be able to fill
in the gaps.

There not a word of politics <vbg>

Of course we should have kept the British Empire.

D'oh !
