I loved it as a former and found the latter perhaps a bit complicated and slow to play. Still, this will prove a book you will like having around.. "Generic set of Rules. And where are the Maori?" according to Nicholas D. Stern. I collect miniature wargame rules, especially those focusing on the Victorian colonial period.
