After seeing my scenario in print (see issue #94), I noticed the final version of my scenario was not used (I instead sent the next to last version!). What follows is the correct information for the number of Zulus for the scenario, plus a few notes to replace the corresponding earlier ones, which were overlooked as well. For the notes.

To any who have already run the scenario (and if to any British who may have gotten whacked by too many Zulus!), I apologize for the mix-up.

Additional GM Background Note

On the first Zulu initiative (during Charge Declaration phase), 1 lone Zulu figure is comes out of the umuzi on the NW hill, and after turning to see the British forces, immediately charges towards the main kraal to warn the ibutho there (then proceed to the Prince's kraal).

Move the figure in as straight a line as possible towards the main kraal, while trying to avoid any British pursuit. The British players will attempt either a charge by their mounted, vedettes fire at the lone figure, or both. Naturally the fire will go a long way towards alerting the rest of the Zulus!

Additional British Background Notes

In the following notes I have used italic for the specific changes from the earlier version:

2) Set-up forces within 12" of West edge of board on SW hill (i.e. hill without umuzi), in any formation desired, even column.

3) You may (optional) send out mounted Vedettes (2 figures) to scout area more closely.

British Forces Player 4
