Hot on the heels of my finished Zulu Army I have started on the Brits

Spent four hours last night assembling and basing the British Infantry

60 from Warlord Games (plastic) and 40+ from Blacktree – These got given a prime last thing in the evening and early this morning I started the paintwork (boots & trousers on Blacktree figures before work

For those of you interested I have catalogued all the 28mm Anglo Zulu War suppliers I can find on the blog

A good start! What rules please?

Will be using Black Powder / The Sword and the Flame and probably The Men who would be Kings

Thanks for the size comparisons. I feel better about my mix of Warlord, Wargames Factory, and BTD!

The Blacktree Zulus and Brits are slightly larger than the plastics – only slightly. They are chunkier as well but lets face it not all humans are the same size so variety in mini sizes is good

Yes I agree.

100 British? man, you'll need a lot of Zulus to trouble that bunch 'a' Herberts, unless the dreaded, 'recycling' of the Zulus takes place!
