Anybody know of any attempts to use SG2 for Colonial, specifically Zulu War,
conflicts? If not, I'm gonna dabble...

*L* Geez... talk about synchronicity...

I guess it's time to let the cat out of the bag. I don't have a set for Zulu
War or other Colonial periods but I have almost completed a set for the
American Civil War.

I call it Hardtack. I did some playtesting on the weekend and it looks good. I
still have to playtest the artillery, and I don't have enough cavalry yet to
do that part of the game justice, but it may have some ideas if you want to
use it for colonial periods.

Now that I think of it, it would probably play rather well for Colonial. You'd
have to play with the rifle stats, but treat them the way I treat repeaters
and it should be fine. The tricky part would be the Zulu weapons.

Currently it's only available in Word format. I plan to convert it to an
Acrobat PDF file when I'm ready to release it. Andy, if you can handle Word I
can send it to you.
