Description

This is a game for war gamers.

In 1908 Col Swinton wrote the classic military book “The Defence of Duffer’s Drift.” It is about a small unit encounter during the Boer War. It teaches basic military tactics through a series of dreams. This product applies that scenario to a game. It includes a copy or Swindon’s book along with the Encounters Matrix Game rules and two game maps with wooden counters.

People interested in British Colonial wars, modern infantry actions, or military logic games will like this product.

This is an Encounters Matrix Game. It comes in a box with a 21x16 inch hard board tactical map, a 10.5x16 inch hard board grand tactical map, order of battle, hardback book of Swindon's classic text and rule book, wooden counters and plastic gold coins, and dice.
