Zulu War in HO Scale


This is the start of my Zulu War Project I'm doing with a friend. For the most part we are using ESCI\Italeri and HAT plastics in 1\72 scale.

Although some are mounted on single stands the organization will be from Black Powder and the Zulu War Supplement. I also may make The Sword and the Flame work for smaller games that have a one-to-one feel to them.

The HAT British Mounted Infantry features enough poses for an 8 figure mounted unit as well as a 8 figure dismt unit.  I will use them interchangeably. 
Dismt and Mtd Contingents.
Mtd Contingent Skirmishing from the saddle
ESCI\Italeri Zulus...Excellent figures and a bit fancy! These are the umHlanga-The Reeds.
My organization will be 24-30 Zulus to a regiment plus a command unit.
