COLONIAL
WARS
Throughout
the nineteenth century Great Britain expanded and consolidated its overseas
colonies and territories. This period marked a constant series of conflicts
as the Imperial forces engaged with local and indigenous peoples across
the globe. The scale of actions varied greatly from skirmishes to large
scale campaigns such as those undertaken in Sudan or against the Boers.
The
whole period offers great contrasts in culture, technology and cultural
attitudes and provides for a fascinating series of games and campaigns.
