Tas's Anglo Zulu War - Video BATREP added
« on: November 27, 2017, 06:29:55 AM »
Just found my AZW stuff which has been sitting in a box for 23 years... Time for some love!
Came out remarkably well I think. Here are some pics of the Zulus (Essex figs)

Very nice (and lucky on the small amount of damage!). I have enjoyed YIAWWS for years.

Amazing stuff you have there! Time to put them in action then!

Thanks Gents Yes, but ch better than I had feared.

Here are the Imperial forces of the Great White Queen (though their lancers and upraised swords didn't quite fare as well).  More at my blog here:

Yo, call the provost. Those chaps in the back, far right, are about to leg-it!

Not my period but pretty cool nonetheless.

Nice collection.

I like the idea of the VC. I remember reading a passage in the 'The Sword and the Flame' ruleset about awarding medals.

This is a video Battle Report from our game last week - great to get the toys back onto the table after so long!
We used TBMMWK rules, with some modifications to unit sizes an substituted a stand for every unit strength point.
