Definitely makes it more interesting - I had the impression, T&T was more about large skirmishes with small armies.
I may get the rules somewhen this winter, then, as I feel an urge to get back into interwar/pulp/cthulhu/horror somewhen soonish.
EDIT:
Read the thread on the Colonial Supplement - just got another reason to have a look at the rules, as I am in the midst of a Victorian/Steampunk Colonial project (painting some Zulu for IHMN atm), and I actually haven't found the rules I want to use for larger engagements, yet...
