As I have mentioned before, I'm a big Dave Mersey fan and my choice for gaming Colonial conflicts from approximately 1850 to 1914 is The Men Who Would be Kings. Based on the popular Knight Rampant, I love the approach that allows me to tailor the scenarios and forces in a realistic manner without getting bogged down in too many charts and mechanics. In addition, it's fun, fast playing, and allows me to have a "Hollywood" type of game!

I've seen those rules, but not played them. What sort of size of force would you use? I'm making up some 15mm Anglo Zulu War minisfor Sharp Practice, which would give something like 60 Zulus and 40 British. Is that number playable with TMWWBK?

And thank you for the link to your blog. Very interesting and very nice loking models.

I've played games with up to 12 units per side.
