Command Combat: Colonials is Coming!

Craig Robertson is premiering Command Combat: Colonials at Celesticon this weekend, and it should be fantastic.  In it, we go into the colonial wars as Britain expanded into various continents.  Here is the information on the flyers:

We are proud to announce a new addition to the Command Combat series. Command Combat: Colonial Wars will expand the Command Combat miniature rules system to include the multitude of small wars and punitive expeditions that European colonial powers engaged in from 1815 to 1914. From China to Afghanistan, from the Sudan to South Africa, from Paraguay to Montana, Command Combat: Colonial Wars will allow you to play your favorite battles and armies from this incredibly rich period of history.

Command Combat: Colonial Wars will add the following features to the Command Combat system:

·         Detailed historical scenarios.
·         Full point-build army lists for a wide variety of colonial conflicts.
·         Nationality-specific special rules for units and commanders.
·         A new campaign system to simulate an expedition from start to finish.

The first wave of Command Combat: Colonial Wars will cover the years 1873 through 1885. The British were incredibly busy during these years, with campaigns against the Ashantis, Zulus, Afghan tribes, Mahdists, Egyptian Army, and the Boers. Meanwhile, there was a certain blond-haired U.S. Army officer who got himself into a bit of trouble in Montana. Watch for The Transvaal War Campaign Pack early next year, and keep an eye out for playtest sessions at your local game stores and conventions until then.
