I got a copy of Dan Mersey’s A Wargamers Guide to the Anglo
Zulu War at a good price. It’s a very
nice, well produced affair containing pretty much what you would want to
know.
The tone is pleasantly
conversational and as you would expect-informed. Strangely, Dan does not mention his own
splendid Men Who Would Be King in the rules round up towards the back. Old fashioned modesty perhaps, anyway it
doesn’t matter because you can clearly see from the historical material what
inspired the thinking behind his ‘tribal firepower’ rule. All in all, it’s a grand little purchase.
The Impi, as you can see is coming on a treat. Just one unit left to paint and then its
horns, head and loins on the table.
Here’s a pic of the Old Glory Chinese Legation armed civilians
handy enough for the Cape too.
