Description

Tactical Studies Rules (TSR) published a total of twelve issues of Little Wars magazine from 1976 to 1978 before folding it into The Dragon.

From the introduction to the game:
"Scalplock is a game designed to take in to account one of the more romantic and exciting elements of the Revolutionary War Period, yet one which has been little simulated; Indian Fighting and Buck-skinned Guerilla Skirmishing. The game is designed to incorporate rapidity of play to the point where time limits are set for any written orders to be made."

This miniature rules set includes scenarios set during the French and Indian War through the Post-Revolutionary War period. Each player controls small squads (ideally composed of 4-6 members). Rules seem to suggest 2 or more players, so team play is possible.

Amusing side note:
There's an additional scenario that pits a group of Tories and Indians vs. the Fellowship without Gandalf.

Required for play:
Appropriately-themed 20-25mm miniatures
Metric Rule
Percentile Dice and 6-sided Dice
A hex or square-divided game board
Terrain elements
Blank counters or anything else to indicate contour elevations
Poker chips (red, white, blue)
