Love these uniforms...and the paint job!

I always find the French Foreign Legion tempting. Do those rules include scenarios?

Very nice scene, the mahdists are particularly well painted !

The rules have a number of generic type scenarios adaptable to most colonial period armies. For a 64 page book the author managed to cover quite a bit.
