Zulus on the Ramparts!: The Battle of Rorke's Drift – Second Edition

A tactical solitaire simulation of the 1879 defense of a mission station at Rorke’s Drift. Players command roughly 140 British soldiers and auxiliaries as waves of Zulu regiments advance in massed attacks. Gameplay focuses on building barricades, allocating defenders, resolving repeated assaults with simple combat mechanics, and managing heat and exhaustion from sustained firing. Event and action cards introduce historical complications and hero moments while turns represent 15–45 minutes of battle time. Components include a detailed map, laser-cut pieces, action cards and a rules booklet to support focused, historical skirmish play.
