ZUL008
First Legion
Elements of the 24th Regiment were heavily engaged in the desperate and heroic defense at Rorke's Drift where less than 150 British soldiers held off a Zulu force numbering close to 4,000. In this action, the 24th Foot were awarded more Victoria's Crosses than any other single regiment in a single action in British military history.
Around the same time, the bulk of the regiment was decimated at the Battle of Islandawana where over confidence led to the annihilation of the British and allied forces.
These wonderful new figures can be used in a wide variety of dramatic displays. Zulu Warriors will follow up soon after this initial release!
