About Soldier's Companion

Soldier's Companion is a good, solid set of 19th-century colonial miniatures rules. The basic system mechanics are are an elaboration of those used in Sky Galleons of Mars, giving a solid basis for land, aerial, and aquatic combats. While allowing for the addition of land juggernauts, combat tripods, and aerial fliers, the rules work just as well for a rag-tag British column fighting its way through the passes of the Northwest Frontier. Soldier's Companion combines the excitement of the 19th-century colonial wars with the adventure of Space:1889.
