What rule books have good army lists for Native American tribes? I have Yellow Ribbon – any others? Looking for anything that will distinguish one tribe from another. Concerned mainly with SW and Plains Indians here. If the lists have a little "Hollywood" in them, that's okay. |

Woodland- All infantry. Almost all musket by 1700.
Plains- All cavalry. Majority firearms by 1860. I think that's about it. |

The Tomahawk and the Flame, while a TSATF variant, contains some good general tribal characteristics. And it's free! link |
