So after Andy scuppered the hopes and dreams of many, I think we’ve chosen wisely. Looking forward immensely to some Imaginations Colonial!

I feel that the descendant of General Holden McGroin, Captain Ruben McGroin, will be making an appearance.

Yes, once people get over the crushing disappointment and financial ruin caused by Andy's destruction of the original 2023 plan, there's going to be a lot of enthusiasm for this huge colonial adventure.

Colonial 17thC Hmmm, well I have Tangerines I was intending to use anyway, so no different to the 17thC plans.

Imaginations Colonial, 19thC you mean?

I take it this is so EB can have camel guns and elephant cavalry?

Does this all mean that the Lion Rampant plans are dead too or is there still an appetite for that?
(Could easily go for some LR "Colonial" in the Middle East, Africa or N. America :D )

NB: C19th Colonial covers a large and diverse time period, is there any more specific plan.

Not yet Paul. Tim H and I are putting thinking caps on, but current thoughts are somewhere in fictional Africa with silly names, indigenous tribes and a series of small actions within an overall scheme leading to a Sunday finale of some kind.

No decisions on rules or force sizes yet - only that there's quite a large existing reservoir of figures which hopefully will allow people who only want to paint/bring a small force to be supplemented from the reserve pool.
