Title: A refight of Isandlwana
Post by: Eric the Shed on 11 June 2024, 08:49:17 PM

Evening folks, last night we refought Isandlwana in the shed. A big battle with almost 1000 28mm Zulus on the table and a few Brits plus allies. A full report and scenario specifics on the blog plus a few pictures with the AAR. We used Black Powder.

Looks great. Man, that is a heck of a lot of zulus.
Makes the threat so much more real for the British.

Fantastic! Great looking game! I've painted Zulus before and respect your perseverance!

The size of that table is most certainly not something to scoff at.

Like another poster, I was shocked to learn that over one thousand Zulu figures were present.

Thank you for posting.

That gives us a real sense of the challenge the British faced. Well done.

That report (and table and figures) was impressive.  Very atmospheric...

The Brits are wondering why they didn't bring a gatling gun....

Where is Lord Chelmsford when you need him?
