Zulu Sunday part 2 - 28mm Rorkes Drift

Welcome back to the second part of Zulu Sunday

If you missed the write up of Isandlwana head here

http://shedwars.blogspot.co.uk/2017/01/zulu-sunday-28mm-isandlwana-wargame.html

For this game we switched the sides around - there would be three fighting as the British Defenders (James, Alastair & Legatus) whilst Mark and I would command the Zulus.

Again we used the Black Powder ruleset and inspiration was drawn from the Black Powder Zulu supplement. I was keen to make this a much more tactical game than the earlier battle with both the Zulus and British able to determine how the various assaults would play out.

The first part of this post very much deals with the set up of the game and the various rules that would come into play...

Read on...

All quiet at Rorkes Drift

The timetable

The battle at Rorkes Drift was fought from 4.30pm on the 22^nd January until 04.00am the following day. The defence fought continuously for approximately 12 hours. During this time there were a number of assaults made by the Zulus. Our game will focus on this timetable.

Having checked the internet I can see that sunset in this part of the world in January is around 7.45pm with dusk about 30 minutes later.

Sunrise	05.43
Sunset	19.43
Day Length	13.59
Dawn	05.18
Dusk	20.08

Location: Helpmekaar – 11^th Jan 2017

Reports from the battle suggest that once night fell it was inky black and the only aid to vision came from the burning hospital. Had this building not have been fired I suspect that battle may not have even raged on into the night hours because surely the Zulus would have been as hampered by the lack of light as the British. I have also read that the Zulus did not particularly like to fight at night time.

In other words one of the buildings in our game will go up in flames for the battle to continue past nightfall .

So as part of the game we needed to consider the timings. The reports suggest that the Mission was under constant assault throughout the evening and it wasn’t until 4 am in the morning that the attacks finally petered out.

This effectively is 12 hours of constant fighting. I think we can assume that the assaults would have been frenetic fast paced affairs but between assaults there would have been moments of uneasy calm.

We can be certain that the defenders would have been under constant sniper fire (albeit ineffective)

NB: All the accounts I have read so far seen to suggest that the vast majority of British Casualties (ie KIA) came from Zulu shooting NOT melee wounds – again this has to be considered in the game .

I therefore decided to break the game into 12 phases. With each phase either a moment of calm or an assault. As the attacker the Zulu player will determine how these phases play.

The game will start with phase 1 which will be the first assault. Thereafter the zulu player can initiate a second assault in phase 2 or use this time to ready his troops (rally, position for attack, etc) – He may only make a maximum of 6 assaults during the game or fewer if troops are no longer available. Two assault phases must be followed by one passive phase.

These Phases will be known as Assault phases or Passive Phases

An Assault Phase will be played out like turns in the rules – there is no limit to the number of turns in any given assault phase.

Each Passive Phase will play like this…

Action	Player
1	Zulu player declares end of assault phase and advances clock 30 minutes
2	British player rallies any shaken units British Disordered units no longer disordered
3	British player deploys forces – ·         Defence (site troops in new location) ·    Allocate forces to building Defences - 6" of defences or half redoubt can be built by allocating two British units to defence building
4	Zulu Player rallies any shaken units
5	Zulu Player determines if any Regiments are broken and then removes from play
6	Zulu player determines next starting points of attack – and moves appropriate units
7	Zulu player initiates sniper fire – British Units may respond with those on defensive duty and facing sniper units
8	Zulu player initiates next phase either declaring as an assault phase or another passive phase

Daytime versus Night time

Sadly the Black Powder ruleset does not feature rules for night time engagements so I have developed my own.

Phase	Time Starts	Light Conditions	Effects
1	16.30	Normal	No in-game effects
2	17.30
3	18.30
4	19.30	Sunset/Dusk	Shooting ranges unaffected but -1 to hit at long range
5	20.30	Night	Restricted to 12” And Minus 1 to hit at all ranges…. unless illuminated by fire All commanders rolls at -1
6	21.30
7	22.30
8	23.30
9	00.30
10	01.30
11	02.30
12	03.30

·         Any building set fire will illuminate an area 12 inches from its edge. This will be denoted by a line of cotton. Shooting into an illuminated area carries no penalties.

Ranges: Just a quick note on ranges - all firearms in this game have unlimited range however once the measure goes past 18" tonly a natural 6 hits. This reflects the cover and distances that sniper fire (on both sides) had in the battle.

Winning Conditions

If the Drift is still defended by the end of turn 12 the British players has won. If during these 12 phases the British defence is routed the Zulu players have won.

Zulu Forces

I have decided to use the Black Powder ruleset for this game and as mentioned I am going to use the scenario as laid out in the Zulu supplement as a base.

Now having read through this several times I have come to the opinion that this book was rushed and somewhat incomplete. For example -  no mention is given to the size of the Zulu units or how often they can attack. The book lists the Zulus as having four regiments (tick) each supporting three warbands (tick) so in total 12 warbands.

These brave natives are attacking 12 British units armed to the teeth in defensive positions – our last few games of Black Powder suggest the attacker must have at least a 3-1 advantage to have any chance of winning.

I therefore am looking for the Zulus to have around 36 or more Warbands (although they will not all be able to attack simultaneously.

So with this in mind the Zulus (clearly outnumbering the British in real life by 20/1) will be afforded many more units to attack with.

However these units will not all be available straight away. Reports suggest that the attacks on Rorkes Drift were led by the INdluyengwe regiment with the other three following up behind, so our first assault will be led by this regiment in its entirety – thereafter the regiments can be mixed up.

Each of the four regiments listed in the supplement book has between 900 and 1500 warriors. A total of 4900 warriors. Casualty reports from the battle suggest that the Zulus lost 1000 men killed and several hundreds wounded. Conservatively we could state that at least half the forces attacking Rorkes drift were either injured or killed in the battle. This plays well with the Black Powder rules that if half the force is shaken/routed the force can no longer attack (ie loses).

As mentioned in my previous post I discovered that an Impi is just a generic term for an Army/Regiments. Regiments were actually called IButho’s and these were made up of several units called Amaviyo’s.  Amaviyos ranged in size from fifty to two hundred men. The Amaviyo will become my standard warband and this scenario will represent 125 warriors.

So using the Black Powder Zulu Supplement listed regiments we can determine that the Zulu force will comprise of 39 warbands.

Regiment Name	Number of Warriors	Number of Warbands
INdluyengwe	1000	8
INdlondlo	900	7
UDloko	1500	12
Uthulwana	1500	12

Each Zulu Regiment will be able to function normally until it has lost or cannot rally more than half of it’s warbands. It will be for the Zulu player to determine when best to try to rally these units and when to retire to maintain the integrity of a unit.

For example the UDloko regiment will have 12 warbands and once 7 of these are either shaken or destroyed the regiment will cease to take part in the battle. The Zulus will have 39 Warbands with which they can assault the Drift.

Units rallied in either of the phases will reduce their number of wounds taken buy one but will always retain one as per rule book instructions

Each Zulu Commander may try to rally a maximum of one warband during a passive phase. Units that fail to rally in one passive phase can be tried again in a subsequent phases. The Zulu player has

four regimental commanders and one overall commander. A regimental commander may only try to rally his own units. The supreme commander can affect any unit.

For example let us presuppose that after the first assault the INdluyengwe retires with a bloody nose – the Regiment has 8 warbands. Of these 1 has been broken and three retire shaken. The Regiment is still operating (ie 4 units remain unaffected) – the regimental commander and supreme commander both successfully rally two of the shaken units in the passive phase. The Regiment now has six units that could be used in a subsequent assault.

Its been often quoted by history writers that had the Zulus massed for one single assault on the defences they may well have overcome the defences but rather they attacked piecemeal.

So in this game we need to make sure that the Zulus have sufficient forces for an assault but at the same time limit their numbers. In addition many of the contemporary reports suggest that the Zulus were adept at using groundcover to conceal their approach so therefore I’ll introduce the concept of jump off points for the Zulu attack.

Jump Off Points

There are three Jump off points for the Zulus to approach from. These vary in distance from the British defences and afford different levels of cover.

·         A maximum of 10 units can attack from one jump off point. 

·         Warbands from the same regiment must start from the same jump off point

·         Multiple regiments can come from same jump off point

·         Units may retreat off table from any jump off point

Purple stars denote Jump Off points

Actual Zulu Attacks

As has been mentioned above the initial assault will be led by the INdluyengwe regiment. They will start with 8 War bands lead by their own regimental commander (8+).  The first assault will come from Jump point A or B and there will be 8 Feint Cards in the first deck.

Feint Cards

The Zulus have access to 8 Feint cards they may play during an assault phase. Units are placed on the table as if they are real troops but once fired at the zuulu player will turnover the respective card and show whether this is a real unit or not.

Subsequent attacks by the Zulus will be dealt with as follows: The Zulu commanders will determine how many War bands are to attack – this can be a maximum of 12 units – These can be a mix of regiments with units from the same regiment starting from the same jump off points. The commander of each regiment attacking will always be on table starting at the jump off point where most of the regiments forces are played.

To disguise how many units are actually attacking and where the assault come from the Zulu player will select the war bands from the deck of cards provided (each card denotes the regiment name and a war band number). Added to the deck will be a number of blank cards (feint cards) the total number of cards will be 16. These will be placed face down on the jump off points along with any officers.

Once the Zulu units have been activated the cards are substituted with figures with the card placed under the warband
This way the British forces will have an idea of where the assault is coming from but not the strength of the attack. Imagine if you will that feint cards are part of the confusion and fog of war.

Zulu Morale & Forces

Zulu Morale for each of the first two assaults is at +1 reflecting the eagerness of the warriors to get into action having missed the opportunity at Isandlwhana . These must both be made at daytime.

The Zulu warbands during daytime will be steady (ie they get to reroll one failed morale check) – this benefit is lost one night falls.

The Zulu Warbands are bloodthirsty – each warband once per game get this trait. Once the trait has been used remove one figure from movement tray to denote it is no longer bloodthirsty.

All Zulu Units may make one move as if on initiative if not ordered.

Zulu Commanders – All commanders are 8+ and offer no melee benefits. The Commander benefit allows Warbands that arte touching to attack/move simultaneously towards same target.

Zulu retirement from Assault phase

When a Zulu commander announces he is going to retire the British may have one free shot for each unit that can see a Zulu unit retiring. Forces retiring are then placed back into the pool.

Zulu Snipers

During the actual battle a number of Zulus took up sniping positions around the Mission and fired into the encampment. The Zulu player at the start of each turn must allocate warbands to this task. Each regiment (ie 4 in total) can provide one unit for sniper duty. These are placed in the area where they will commence shooting.

They will need 5+ to hit regardless of range (provided they are in range 18”). A natural 6 will disorder the British targets.

British units hit in cover receive +1 to morale saves / +2 in buildings

Zulus Snipers are always -1 to be hit and count in cover (+2 morale saves)

Burning Buildings

The Zulus may elect to try and set fire to the thatched roofs of the buildings. A warband must be touching the building. To set fire in that turn one dice is rolled 5+ a fire is started. The warband may continue to perform other actions.

Once a building has caught fire we use the rules as set out in the Blackpowder supplement. If neither building has caught fire by sunset we assume an errant lamp has been knocked over and that a fire will break out in 1-2 Storehouse / 3-6 Hospital. Troops inside burning buildings take one hit every turn (during shooting phase) - morale saves applicable with no cover bonus

British Forces

The history suggests that the drift was finally defended by about 140 men of all ranks and as per the Black Powder supplement the British will field a total of 12 units (each donated by a named character).

Each unit effectively represent a squad of about 10 fighting men. These are based in fours.

In addition the British will have five characters

Lieutenants Chard & Bromhead, Commissary Dalton, CSM Bourne and Surgeon Reynolds

Unit cards were prepared for the battle using characters from the film

Command

All units may independently command themselves on 8+ (unlike the Zulus who get a free move the British must command themselves to move but if successful could move further than 1 movement distance)

Chard, Bromhead and Dalton have 10+ command values and may add +1 to any units melee if they join the unit.

CSM Bourne acts as a leader (8+) and adds +2 melee to any unit he joins

Surgeon Reynolds is not a commander but during passive phases may attempt to remove 1 wound (rally) on any one unit (8+)/phase

Only Chard, Bromhead and Reynolds may rally units in the passive phases.

Building Defences

When the Zulus attack at 4.30pm the defences at Rorkes Drift are not complete. The outer wall has been constructed but inner walls and the redoubt are yet to be constructed. Units maybe allocated to defence building with each unit constructing one section per two units allocated per phase however

·         Units being rallied may not construct

·         Units shaken may not construct

·         Units on defensive sniper fire may not construct

·         Units constructing start their turn from the construction area when the phase completes

Break Tests

The British troops are both stubborn and steady – they will be able to reroll one failed morale save in the game and ignore the first break.

Volley/Closing Fire

A British unit may deliver closing fire to any Zulu unit charging them. This is represented by a fire round for every move the Zulu unit moves towards them – eg if a Zulu unit charges a unit with three moves it receives three rounds of volley fire.

The Battle Report

So how did our defence of Rorkes Drift play out?

Following a light lunch of Pizza the British huddled over the defences to determine where they would stand. They had no knowledge of where the Zulus would attack or where they might come from. It was clearly very tense.

The First Assault

As has been mentioned the first assault was conducted by the INdluyengwe regiment. Because they had 8 warbands the assault could also draw 4 feint cards. We elected that they would come on from the jump point on the Oskarberg terraces and advance on the hospital intent on getting this alight as soon as possible. One unit was placed on sniper duty.

The Zulu sallied forth and were met with furious fire from the Hospital's southern wall and barricades joining the two buildings. Fortunately for the Zulus the assault was screened by feint units and the majority of the regiment reached the hospital.

One unit forced its way in and a vicious melee broke out inside the building. Maxfield the defending unit put up a brave show and held the advancing units. By now the Zulus had set fire to the building and were wrapping around the hospital and assaulting the western edge of the Drift.

The Zulus were being driven back but some casualties were inflicted on the British. With the Zulu regiment in danger of breaking the first assault was called off and everybody inside the drift could take a deep breath. The ramparts had held but it had been nip and tuck. 

The Zulus first assault on the hospital and western edge 

The First assault

No sooner had the first assaulyt been repulsed the Zulus attacked again. This time 8 fresh regiments swarmed in from the Northern Garden attacking the North West ramparts whilst a further four units & four feints advanced from the Noth east through the stone Kraal.

The Hospital was now fully ablaze driving the defending units out onto the perimeter walls.



Bouyed on by the victory earlier in the day the bloodthirsty zulus (the +1 morale save was making a real difference)threw their bodies onto the ramparts. The British fire was murderous but they were getting pushed back from the barricades.

With a cry of Usuthu the brave natives swarmed over the ramparts killing Corporal Allen and his squad and infuring several other units. The attack was pressed home but the numbers available to the attackers were dwindling.

Chard and CSM Bourne lent their support to the gallant defenders. Maxfield having fought valiantly in the hospital was the first to awarded the VC for his heroics holding back two units of Zulus on the ramparts.




Meanwhile the Zulu attack in the eastern section was also pressing home and fighting over the stone Kraal was brutal. The Zulus pressed home and another brave British unit bit the dust .

The combat on the North west ramparts was now petering out but in a final flurry of spears and bayonets Corporal Windridge and his squad were killed. The British had lost 25% of their forces and there were still more Zulus circling the defences.

It was time for a break in the engagement. As the Zulus tended their wounded and rallied their forces the British elected to build the redoubt in the middle of the Drift. Sniper fire continued unabated but was to a large extent completely ineffective.

As the sun was setting the Zulus massed for their third attack. (now longer receiving the +1 morale bonus)

Once again forces attacked from the Garden and another large force pusjhed down off the Oskaberg -- intent on forcing a fight around the storehouse.

One Zulu regiment crashed against the northern ramparts only to be driven off and routed by volley fire.

The Zulus from the south closed on the storehouse in in no short time managed to get this building ablaze. The British units began to cluster around the redoubt fearing the worse

The Zulus charges again and again - each time the body count rose and no impression could be made on the defences

As the sun was setting the Zulu tried one final push with a fresh regiment against the ramparts on the North wall - four warbands charged and in quick succession three were routed as they hit the mealie bag walls and a wall of lead. The assault had failed.

It was now 5pm real time and to be frank all the players were exhausted. The Zulus had thrown the best part of half their units at the drift and only had a modicum of success.

Sufficient forces still exist for further attacks but from a starting count of 39 warbands - 13 had been destroyed with two of the four regiment perilously close to breaking.

It was agreed to capture the status of all the units on paper and potentially complete this gamer in the future however based on the superior firepower and defences of the British I think the conclusion might be staring us in the face.

What a game - this really did capture the cinematic feel we wanted. A big thank you to those that took part -

Until next time

Zulu Sunday - 28mm Isandlwana Wargame

There can't be too many wargamers out there who have never watched the movies Zulu Dawn or Zulu and said wouldn't that be great to recreate those battle on the table top.

This has always been on the top of my bucket list to re-fight these cinematic engagements and following all the hard graft to paint up hundreds of figures over the past six months my dream was finally realised.

If you have been following my blog over this period you will be aware that I started this project when my father was sadly diagnosed with a terminal brain tumour. Sadly he passed away before he could see the fruition of these labours but the following is dedicated to him.

On Sunday five of us gathered to commemorate those souls who fought and died bravely in the opening salvos of the Anglo Zulu war of 1879. The day was made even more poignant by the fact that Sunday 22nd was actually the anniversary of the battles of Isandlwhana and Rorkes Drift.

With the cold weather gripping the South East of England (temperatures barely above zero) the shed was out of bounds so our games were played out in the warmth of my kitchen.

Kicking off at 09.00hrs with Bacon Sandwiches and gallons of tea the forces and players assembled. The morning would focus on Isandlwhana with the attention in the afternoon from 1pm switching to Rorkes Drift. The day would finish around 5pm - 8 hours of great gaming.


Setting the field for Isandlwhana was no easy feat as I had to draft in both a garden table and our dining room tanble to complement the Kitchen table. This ended up being almost 11ft x 11ft with the invisdible summit of the rocky outcrop of Isandlwhana sitting at the cut off edge of the dog leg.

I'd bought some green fleece cloth to cover the tables (not the best colour) and under this we built up the slopes of the South African veldt.

Both games were fought using Black Powder rules with some variations. These are explained in the following notes.

The Zulu Commanders debate their initial approach

The picture above shows the table set up with the British deployment. I used the following map found on the internet to lay out the British forces. The camp complete with wagons and tents can be seen to the right of the picture

I also found this 3d render on the internet showing the layout of the ground and the direction of attack. Our table represents the lower ground circling the summit

British Forces

The British players (myself and Mark) would command the two columns who fought at the battle.

Number 3 Column, Col. Glyn - Mark

Number 2 Column, Col. Durnford 0- Eric the Shed

British Units and their approximate strengths.

Number 2 Column -

Number 2 Column -	Commanded by Durnford 9+
11 Battery 7th Brigade R.A. - 3x 9pdr Rockets.	One Rocket Units
/1st Natal Native Contingent - 2 companies - 240 men	One Unit NNC
Sikhali Horse	One Unit Sikhali
Edendale Troop - 50 men. Hlubi's Troop - 50 men.	One Unit Boers

Number 3 Column commanded by Colonel Glyn	Commanded by Glyn 9+
N Battery 5th Brigade R.A. - 2x 7pdr Guns	Two Artillery Battery
1/24th - 5 companies - 415 men.	5 units British Infantry
2/24th - 1 company and detachment - 180 men.	1 unit British Infantry
1/3rd Natal Native Contingent - 2 companies - 200 men	N/a
2/3rd Natal Native Contingent - 2 companies - 200 men	N/a
No.1 Squadron Mounted Infantry - 27 men. Natal Mounted Police - 34 men. Natal Carbineers - 29 men. Newcastle Mounted Rifles - 17 men. Buffalo Border Guard - 8 men.	Unit of Natal Mounted Police (For game purposes this will be transferred to Number 2 Column)

Total Number of Units 14


Each British Infantry unit has its own commander (9+) with non ifantry units rating as 8+

Deployment

Durnford’s forces will be deployed along the front Donga at the beginning of the game. This includes the Rocket Batteries and NMP

Five of the British Infantry companies have been deployed according to the map provided. The Artillery will be limbered half way between the camp and leading unit of deployed infantry.

The British have two other commanding units at their disposal

Colonel Pulleine (in Camp) – 8+ commander

Melville (with Colours) - Tiny Unit 1 Shoot +2 to Melee

British line infantry were given the volley fire attribute and were steady and stubborn. Furthermore to reflect the ammo issues of the British if a firing sequence rolled more 1's than 6's ammo became limited for the unit in question. With ammo limited the unit lost one firing dice.

Each unit had an ammo runner who could 'run' to the ammo wagon and run back to replenish his unit.

The British commander had cards showing the names of his companies and commanders - all adds to the character of the game

Zulu Forces

Zulu Units and their approximate strengths.

Whilst searching for unit descriptions of the Zulu Army I discovered that an Impi is just a generic term for an Army/Regiments. Regiments were actually called IButho’s and these were made up of several units called Amaviyo’s.  Amaviyos ranged in size from fifty to three hundred men. The Amaviyo will become my standard warband and each warband will represent 300 warriors.

Zulu Forces (actual Deployment)

Right Horn
Regiment	Number of Men	Warbands
uDududu	1500	5
iMbube	500	2
iSangqu	1500	5

Left Horn
Regiment	Number of Men	Warbands
uVe	2000	7
iNgobamakhosi	6000	20

Centre
Regiment	Number of Men	Warbands
uNokhenke	2000	7
uKhandempemvu	2500	8
uMbonambi -	2000	8

The Zulus have a total of 52 units in play which gives them a 4 top 1 numerical advantage

 Once 27 plus are shaken or Routed the Zulu Force is assumed to be spent and cannot attack

Cards for all of the Zulu Regiments were produced to aid identification of the units.

The Zulu player will receive one commander for each regiment. These are all +8 commanders.

Zulu units all have the initiative ability that allows them to move forward one move provided they have not been ordered.

The Zulu Force – had to be divided into three horns with no horn more than 50% of the total warband count.The Zulu players could determine the composition of the horns and they would start from any edge facing the summit.

All the Zulu units were standard warband units as described in the book  with no differention between married and unmarried units.

The Game

I think it is fair to say that nobody expected the Brits to win this game - they were severely outnumbered.  


The following is a pictorial story of how our battle of Isandlwhana unfolded..

The Zulu Centre and left horn emerged onto the table....they decided to ignore Durnford and his mounted troops in the Donga

So Durnford's me mounted up and pushed towards the left horn. Next turn Durnford blundered and wheeled his me away from the approaching hordes

The British infantry are in extended line across the battlefied - facing the hordes of Zulus

The centre and left horns pushed forwards to the British camp - the zulus making rapid advances- Centre picture is the advanced rocket battery - it scored a couple of hits !

The Right horn rapidly advanced towards the British Infantry companies

The Zulu units threw themselves against the Rocket Battery - it held for a turn before being engulfed by the Zulu units

The entire Zulu army swamps forward - an impressive and scary site. Over 800-  28mm figures

The Zulu unit about to charge the battery

The first Zulu units reach the British lines on their right wing - red counters denote casualties but they are not piling up quick enough. The Right hand company falls short on ammo (see ammo box)

The British lines fall back towards the summit in good order but they can't hold back the tide

Dunfords mounted units finally start peppering the Zulu left horn with fire but they just don't stop

Colonel Glyn (Mark) finally gets the British line into some semblance of order

But the Zulus keep puushing forward with casualties mounting up

The whole British line is now engaged

The British commander surveys his meagre forces

The line is charged

Fierce hand to hand fighting breaks out across the summit - Zulus are cut down in droves but they just keep coming

The Impis push there way up the hill

Swamping the British companies - moments of heroism but never to be told

The left horn crashes into the British Flank - swiftly overcoming the redcoat resistance

They swarm into the camp for the spoils of war

The colours are about to fall on the summit ! (right hand of picture)
The Zulus have wiped out the British columns 

In three hours of game play the Zulus had won. The Butchers bill was telling. All of Durfords cavalry managed to escape shaken from viscous fighting with the left horn but what of the British line - massacred and the colours taken.

The Zulus lost four only war bands with a number shaken and disordered. Interesting this put the Zulu casualties at about 1600 men. The real battle reports suggest the Zulus lost around 1000 KIA and an numerable number injured. In other words our game fought much like the real thing.

Just a couple of observations on the Black Powder rules.

I had reduced the movement distances listed in the book  - this worked well but the rifle ranges appeared to be a little short - at 18" the Brits only really had a chance to fire a couple of times into the Zulu units before engagement. In hindsight these probably needed to be extended.

Orders of Battle Sheets for Isandlwhana

A big thank you to Mark, Legatus, Alastair and James for making this a truly memorable game

Thanks for reading and in the next post I'll be sharing our re-fight of Rorkes Drift.
