From the rules: "These rules were made to give players a simple set of rules for quick-play conventions games, giving a general feel for the period. The French campaigns in Algeria, Morocco and the Sahara were hard-fought affairs and lasted many decades. Reflecting that reality, these are no form square and bash the natives kind of rules: the peoples of North Africa had a warrior tradition going back to the time of the Romans. The Arabs, Berbers, and Tuareg were fierce warriors to be reckoned with and respected for their skill and courage. These rules are meant to capture some of that spirit."
