Designer's Comments

Colonial expansion at the end of the 19th century and early 20th century. p> Jim and I had played a boardgame about colonial expansion which inspired a plenary game we did for a Wargames Developments Conference. This had to be very simple so that progress could be made in the space of a couple of hours play with about forty people. Almost inevitably, the thought was of doing it as a megagame. As we wanted to focus on colonial expansion, players weren’t allowed to fight wars in Europe (something of a fudge but it set the historical background). Another design that’s on my list of games to update ‘one day’.
