Dominion of the Spear and Bayonet is a very very simple set of solo wargames rules, a standalone set built on the Dominion of the Spear game engine, allowing one to fight two Colonial armies (1800 - 1900 AD) against each other in around ten minutes.
They are written for the game to generate a plausible and with some imagination an amusing narrative. Although figures can be used, battles can easily be fought on paper (no measuring) using pen or pencil and two different coloured six sided dice.
Armies consist of 3-6 units and the points system is included. There is a complete play through of a battle on the North West Frontier. A Quick Reference Sheet is on the back.
This is easily read on a tablet or mobile phone and can be printed as an A5 booklet (click booklet and fit to page in printing options). 32 A5 pages.
