Title: Free copy of Death in the Dark Continent.
Post by: nicknorthstar on 06 August 2023, 04:27:39 PM

Attached is a free copy of our 19th Century Africa game 'Death in the Dark Continent'.
Have a read, see what you think. We've loved it ever since Chris Peers self-published it years and years ago. The current version is the one where we said 'as you're never going to publish this as a proper rulebook with photos and everything, can you let us do it?' Chris said yes.

The full rulebook has 90+ army lists, probably giving you the most comprehensive description of the multitudes of different African peoples you'll ever find in one volume, I'm not exaggerating. There's also a separate skirmish game in there as well as the main DitDC game.
The full game is available here: https://www.northstarfigures.com/prod.php?prod=13551 (https://www.northstarfigures.com/prod.php?prod=13551)

The Death in the Dark Continent Players Page on Facebook also has a good selection of downloadable files, some extra army lists, a Boxer Rebellion expansion etc.

Thank you - I have the hard copy, but a pdf is good to have.  :)

Thank you.

Just planning a £2K spend on the Sudan but that might provide some bits and pieces to start at some point.
