Découvrez Black Powder Epic Battles: Zulu! – Zulu Impi Brigade
The Zulu army was a formidable foe. Well-trained, well-led, and well-equipped for campaigns, the Zulu regiments were the terror of Africa. Created by the great Shaka, founder of the nation, each regiment comprised small companies who trained together, and a regiment could be 1,000 men strong. They were then brigaded to form divisions which could move with great speed and drilled precision, forming the classic Zulu attack formation of the Horns of the Buffalo.
The military system formed units of married and unmarried men, so a cadre of young men had to remain unmarried on the King’s orders until they had ‘washed their spears’ in the blood of their enemies. They were armed with throwing spears, smoothbore muskets, and the deadly stabbing short spear, while their patterned ox-hide shields helped identify their parent regiment.
Once they were blooded would they sew in the characteristic head ring which was the symbol of a mature and married warrior, showing his much-enhanced status in society.
These are the finest warriors of a fierce and proud army, eager to preserve Zululand from all invaders!
