My 1st unit of British Troops for my Zulu war project depicts the 24th Foot the most famous regiment of the war mainly thanks to the film Zulu .The 24th foot were almost wiped out at Isandlwana and then were main force at Rorkes Drift .The main unit is 12 strong with a NCO as leader and the 2 single figures represent a officer and "drummer boy" who were mainly about 20-30 years old and used bugles in the field .Figures are a mixture of Empress metal and Warlord plastic . I have managed to get a lot more at the just need basing stage so hopefully over the next week or so I will have more Brits and Zulus ready and then play testing of my rules can begin in earnest .
Well done Sir, always love this period.
