Hello

They are designed for European warfare (To distinguish them from GUNS OF GETTYSBURG, our ACW variant and from the forthcoming COLONIAL WARS variants)

So please feel free to adapt use them for South AMerica – or use General de Brigade for the earlier C19th European Wars)

General de Brigade rules are quick to learn and provide for fast historical games with a minimum of record keeping. There Are Your Guns! develops the original rules to reflect warfare after Waterloo, focusing upon wars in the European theatre. Many of its features therefore mirror or draw heavily upon General de Brigade, and will be familiar to players familiar with that system. This is only proper as the military minds of the 19th century were driven, rightly or wrongly, by the lessons of Napoleonic warfare and repeated the tactics of the period. As such assumptions lead to disaster in the face of new weapons and technology, so commanders grappled with new methods of deployment and organization, with varying degrees of success or failure. Thus these new rules include revisions and new features to reflect the changes in warfare as developments proceed apace through the century - which will hopefully prove equally challenging (and more importantly, satisfying) to all wargamers.
