I suggest the following ending for the Intro:
"Although European forces in the Americas and Africa in the 16th and 17th centuries were usually tiny compared to the forces deployed in Europe, the long term effects of their actions on the history of the world were in fact far greater than those of all the wars in Europe. From a wargaming point of view the armies they met were some of the most exotic in any period, and provide a complete contrast to the European battles of the era."
