NOW AVAILABLE - Wargaming the Sugar Islands Campaign - A Guide to the British Expedition to Martinique and Guadeloupe in 1759

I received the printed copies of the book from the printer today. It has been a quite a journey but I have enjoyed it very much and hope that you will enjoy reading about and gaming the battles and encounters on the islands.

Wargaming the Sugar Islands Campaign is an 80 page A5 glossy bound guide to the British Invasion of Martinique and Guadeloupe. It contains a detailed summary of the events on both islands, the leaders, the forces involved and the islands themselves. There is information on suitable figures, scenery and rule sets to use and loads of period maps detailing the landing areas and land fought over. I have commissioned two pen and ink drawing from Chris Gregg which sit in the centre of the book. Lastly the book also contains 6 scenarios each with a detailed colour layout and with special rules including a simple campaign and special events.
