Just found out tonight that Italeri will soon be releasing a Rorke's Drift box set complete with buildings and accessories.
Oh,and figs too!

Thanks Jason!

Thank you for bringing it to our attention in the first place. Totally cool. I wonder if there will be new figures or they will be the old Esci ones…they were nice and useful for wargaming….but new is always good too.

From what I've heard on other forums it looks like the old ESCI figs will be used but hopefully there will be new ones too. I first read about this on the HaT forum and it made me sit up and take notice haha!

Looks nice. There appears to be a soldier sitting in a very small redoubt. I hope the redoubt is big enough for more than 1 figures.

Great!

I'll put this on the shelf right next the Warlord, "Horns of the Buffalo" and the 10mm set. Yikes! That's what I need, another irresistible Rouke's Drift set.

I have tones (tonnes?) of the ESCI British and Zulu's. Way back in mists of time, that's what I used in some of my very first miniatures games using TSATF Yaquinto Publications version.

As it is Victorian times, "tons" is the answer….though, if you have barrel fulls, can say "I have firkins of Brits & Zulus"…

A good old barrel measure that!

I'll need a bigger table …..

Henry Martini13 Dec 2015 1:30 p.m. PST

You have firkin tons of Zulus.

Sevastopol13 Dec 2015 6:46 p.m. PST

Haha!
