"ZULU'S"

The dreaded cry of "Zulu's" was feared throughout Southern Africa during the 19th century. 
Zulu's were fanatically brave warriors that were able to destroy a modern British force at the battle of Isandlwana-the worst defeat of a British Imperial Army in 19th century Africa.
This victory was all the more impressive as the Zulu were mostly armed only with hand to hand weapons vs modern rifles and cannon.
Eventually modern weapons, and the resources of the greatest Imperial empire on earth, doomed the Zulu Nation to defeat. Yet even in defeat, the bravery and fearless nature of the Zulu warriors is still remembered to this day.

These are plastic Warlord Games pieces I painted in 2017.
