Battle of Rorkes Drift Napoleon Total War
This is the closest setup I got playing Rorke s Drift with KhartoumZulu mod in Napoleon Total War: 205 british against 1200 zulu warriors. Below 205 british soldiers I am not able to cover Rorke s Drift perimeter that includes the hospital and Commisariat Stores and also since zulu is controlled by 2 AI players, AI attacks simultaneously instead of waves of zulu warriors as it s shown in the film Zulu 1964 by Enfield. The order of battle is inspired on the book: Rorke s Drift 1879 Pinned like rats in a hole by Ian Knight, Campaign Series 41, Osprey Military: British forces: (205) 1 x Rorke s Drift Regiment General (John Chard, Royal Engineers) 2 x 24th Regiment 2 x 2nd Warwickshire 2 x Irregulars (Bromhead Squadron) 8 x Private Welch Zulu forces: (1200) 5 x Udhloko 6 x Ndhlondhlo 5 x UThulwana The historical numbers of each side were the following: British forces: 141 Zulu forces: 3700 aprox.
