Death or Glory: Battle of Rorke's Drift
Relive the valiant stand of 150 British soldiers as they defend a mission station against a Zulu impi numbering in the thousands during the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879. This solitaire book wargame uses an erasable marker and dice to command troops through fast-paced tactical turns. Set up in seconds without mounted maps or counters, and resolve the battle across an hourly sequence of assaults.
