Greetings All! I'm on a quest to find something similar to the Colonial Campaign series books that would provide a few scenarios to use for the Afghan War. I have yet to stumble onto anything of use. Does anyone have any recommendations? |

Ask around. Sergeants 3--on whom be peace--published a thick set of one-sheet scenarios for TSATF, and if I remember correctly Afghanistan got its share. |

yeah, Robert, I'm still kicking myself for not getting that TSATF scenario book years ago. Disaster, thanks for the scoop on the books from Partizan. I saw the scenarios on the Vault, and I may just download those and see what we have. |

Google Maiwand. Treat Afghan regulars as equivalent to TSATF Egyptians, if that's what you're playing. Same if you're playing 800 Fighting Englishmen. |

Jon Sutherland has just produced a very comprehensive series of scenario books for India, including plenty vs the Afghans. Available at Caliver Books. You may have to search under 'Mad Dogs and Englishmen'. I am finding them to be extremely useful. |
looks at a fast-assembly naval kit for the Age of Sail.
