Some time ago I published a collection of my older colonial wargame rules in PDF format with Wargame Vault. The collection was entitled A GALLIMAUFRY OF COLONIAL WARGAMES and it sold moderately well.

Since then I’ve had several requests for printed and bound copies of the rules and as a result, I have now published the book in hardback, softback, and Kindle editions, priced at £17.50, $10.00, and £5.00 respectively.

Included in the book are the following rules:

• Bundock and Bayonet Colonial Wargames Rules
• Part 1: The Basic Rules
• Part 2: The Additional and Optional Rules
• ‘Eres to you Fuzzy Wuzzy: Fighting Colonial battles in the Sudan
• Hordes of Dervishes
• Heroes of Victoria’s Empire (HoVE)
• Colonial Rules for Heroscape™ terrain
• Restless Natives
• Redcoats & Dervishes
• SCWaRes: Simple Colonial Wargame Rules
• Appendix 1: Heroic Leadership Cards for Heroes of Victoria’s Empire (HoVE)
• Appendix 2: Special Event Cards for Restless Natives
• Appendix 3: Heroic Leadership Cards for Restless Natives

Note 1: A gallimaufry is defined as being ‘a confused jumble or medley of things’, hence the title of this book.

Note 2: Please note that some of the rule mechanisms and scenarios contained in this book have been reused in my later books, but they are included for completeness.

Note 3: I originally intended to publish this book in February 2024 … but then I broke my leg and its publication was shelved (i.e I forgot about it!).
