Victoria's Battles Book One: Egypt & Sudan 1881-1898 Wargame Rules for Great Britain's 19th Century Colonial Wars

Victoria's Battles is a highly playable set of rules for playing battles set in the period of Great Britain's 19th Century colonial wars. Book One: Egypt and the Sudan is the first in a series of rules covering the British colonial military experience. The rules allow players to refight both the Mahdist uprising in the Sudan and the 1881-1882 Arabi Revolt. Also covered are rules for forts, gunboats and steamers.

Victoria's Battles was first made available some ten years ago and is still enjoyed by many. The rules have now been refined and improved to give players an even better wargame experience.  The rules support both small and large scale battles using a flexible unit scale. Players can use individual mounted figures or stands mounting multiple figures. A single D10 is used to settle all combat and morale actions. Players will find the game mechanics simple to understand and easy to put into action.  Three introductory scenarios are included.

Book Two: "The Zulu Wars", and Book Three: The Northwest Frontier will follow soon. All three books generally use the same rules and game mechanics, but each adresses the unique aspects of the particular campaign. Each is packaged as a stand alone product.

Unit sizes range from 6 to 12 figures and the unit scale is flexible based on the scenario being played.
