Which rules would you suggest for Zulu War skirmishes ?

Say 20-30 Zulus opposing a British scouting party

TIA

Hi Guthroth,

An adaptation of Saga for Zulu has been published into "Wargames, Soldiers & Strategy" some time ago. Warbase produces the adapted dices.

I really recommend to have a look at it…

Kind regards,

Benoit

I recommend Fire and Steel, not Zulu War specific but covers the period well…..

The ones I've used are Rencounter which used to be a free download. Not sure if it's still available though.

The Tyneside Wargames Club have a free set of Colonial Skirmish Rules available to download (so worth a try):

I've used their free ACW skirmish rules and they are great.

I find that Smooth & Rifled provides a fun and interesting game and they have free Zulu War specific lists:
