Zulus for forthcoming big game

[PaulJB]

This saturday at Evesham Wargames Club we are staging an all dayer with a WW2 Flames of War tournament and a refight of the battle of Nyezane in 28mm.

I have been steadily painting over the last month and here is my contribution to the game;


Gardner Gun


7lb Cannon


Wagons


Cart and Pack Mules


uThulwana


uVe


Some Spares


Musket and Rifles armed


Natal Mounted Contingent

I will post up a link to the game photos over the weekend.

really looking forward to the report painting is fantastic by the way

[AndyRix]

ah there will be a washing of the spears - the great things about brits against zulus is you have to ask who were the raging imperialists - still like the figures

[Captain Blood]

Ye Gods! You have been busy. That's quite an output 

[Smokeyrone]

I love the painting.

Interesting choice of battle.   




Better stop thinking about it now.  SUDAN, and nothing else till I finish my entire project!

(Every time I see great Zulu stuff, I think about all the styrofoam, packs of unpainted 10mm cavalry (and dismounted versions), and my drafts of converting Gutshot to Zulu Wars for a spectaular "Hlobane"  game that will take place in my lifetime!  Oh yes, it will.   )

how did the game go or have you already posted it and ive missed it?

[Ignatieff]

Superb!  what make are the Zulus?

[cram]

The Zulu's look like a mix of Wargames Factory and Wargames Foundry, the brits a mix of Empress and a few Perry? Nice work by the way.

Looking really cool, can't wait for the battle report.

Looking really cool, can't wait for the battle report.

This is a couple-of-month-old thread, mate. He never did post a Nyezane report that weekend. You may have to keep waiting.

He did however post this, if you're interested:

[PaulJB]

Sorry about that must have lost the thread. Stu, who ran the game did the write up and posted it to the club blog.
