The title with its 'mini' games fits this niche perfectly as each game takes no more than 2-3 hours to complete and easily fitted in over several sessions if needs be.
Each game in box is very immersive (even solo) with enough variety and differences between each to keep it all fresh within same COIN umbrella.
Managed to play Malayan and Kenyan Emergencies to completion and up next is Cyprus then I hope to replay all with the Campaign system included.
Had great play through of the Malaya game which plays much more like a 'standard' COIN game with Resources, Area Control and Population Support.
I was therefore more attuned to how both sides operated in this one with only a few adaptions for subject matter and unique Events to assimilate.
British had a much smoother time in this one although it was close in the end and I know that early play of the Malayan Communists was ineffectual (too many Events taken).
Then I got Kenya to table which again is more akin to a 'standard' COIN game but with some twists (such as only Mau Mau track resources and can never destroy British Troops and a Supply Line concept) and Events.
British looked to be clear winners up until last few cards as Mau Mau managed to obtain control of several [rovinces and convert these to Resistance (from Loyalty) which combined with a couple of Terrorised areas swung VPs in their favour with Brits unable to reply in time.
