Synopsis

There's something about Victorian colonial exploits that stirs the blood. Grim faced, khaki clad infantry faced by overwhelming numbers of tribesmen who know no fear and take on troops armed with modern rifles, artillery and machine guns while they themselves have only hand held weapons. In the Sudan 1884-1898 it is all there - the 'fuzzy-wuzzies' of Kipling, the Indian, Egyptian and Sudanese troop types, the renowned Highland infantry, the 21st Lancers, the Camel Corps, the Naval Brigade, the Gatling gun, gun boats, arid terrain, the River Nile - marvellous stuff! The aim of this book is to provide the reader and war gamer with some idea as to how the campaigns were fought and how they might be re-created on the table top.
