If nothing else it will counter-act the smell of the camels, and give new meaning to the term "sauerkraut".

Are German troops allowed to wear Havelocks?

Not a chance! Even if I painted everything I had, I’d still be far off that horde! I’ll work out some points tomorrow.

Would it not make sense to determine ‘sides’? It would also help people decide what to build. Could be problematic if we had 10 European players and two local players.

I agree. I'm supposed to have done that with Tim by now, but I've had such a sh*t year health-wise that wargaming has not really been foremost in my thoughts.

Although something asymmetric with lots of Colonial powers against vast hordes of natives is what we're envisaging - I think.
