"The Maroons were escaped slaves living in the uplands of the islands of Martinique, Guadeloupe and throughout the Caribbean, Mexico and the Americas…" Main page link Amicalement Armand

Slavery in Martinique and Guadeloupe – some mistake, surely? Everyone knows the English were the only nation in history to practice slavery. Every house and public building in England was financed through the profits from slavery and every white male was deeply involved in the trade.

Nice shout out, Tango. Stuart's book is really well done, and the Crann Tara/Minden figures work perfectly for the campaign.

Stuart's book and this scenario is really good and provides a new area to game in the 7YW/F&I period. My take on the Maroon Encounter played via texting a couple of months ago: link ‌Another overview of the action by Mark Luther, on Flickr ‌Redcoats! by Mark Luther, on Flickr That was a fun game.
