Interesting. The Krupp gun is indeed WW 1 rather than from the Boer War.

It's all very familiar-looking; but then, I live in the other SA… the one where Breaker Morant was filmed. Recently I was on the commuter train heading home in a southerly direction, and there was an American with his family a couple of seats away. As we passed over the longest rail bridge in the southern hemisphere through the local recreation park where I take my morning walks he looked out the window and excitedly exclaimed 'savannah!' My impression, if I might use a Fawlty Towersism, is that he was expecting any moment to see 'herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the plain'; a mob of kangaroos reclining lazily in the grass, perhaps, but wildebeest… For a moment I thought to correct his misapprehension, but then decided it would be better to leave him to his colourful imaginings.

So, for wargaming purposes, lots of brown with splotches of green rather than vice versa.

Well and constructively observed, Nick my friend!
