"What Book or Film Most Inspired You to Get Into Colonial Gaming (Round 2)" Topic

55 Days didn't get me into Colonials, but of all the ones that made it this far, it's the only one that's inspired me to buy minis (for VSF games).

When I first saw The Man Who Would Be King in the theater, I was blown away by one scene of the army on the march. "Egad, that's a proper wargaming army!"

I would have liked to include Zulu Dawn, however, I was neck deep into colonials before it came out. I did include Khartoum even though it was 20 years after I started colonials before I painted my first Mahdist unit.

Lawrence of Arabia isn't a colonial film. It's a WWI film.

Poll doesn't say colonial film.
Just the film that got someone into colonial gaming.

What happened to North West Frontier? Where is Young Winston?

Trains….what is Colonial warfare without a train (or a steam traction engine towing a really big gun)?
