- The Scenario is set in the
late 19th Century during the 'African colonisation' spree, where
the various European powers 'divvied' up 'The Dark Continent'.
The European tribes had different agendas for pursuing Colonisation,
and some did not count on the extent of opposition that was to
be faced by the natives - as clearly seen in the Battle of Adowa
- where the Italians endured a brutal and humiliating defeat
at the hands of the independent Ethiopian kingdom. While there
were deals struck between the Europeans, demonstrated by the
agreements founded at the 'Berlin Conference', there still remained
points of animosity. The scenario is 'vaguely' founded on history,
although does take up fictional themes fairly frequently.
