Just found this very old computer game in a bunch of others i had packed away long ago. What got me to purchase it in the first place is that you can play two of the Zulu war campaigns, Islandhlwana and Ulundi. It has a superb editor which allows the game player to create any scenerio, the map, the uniforms, the weaponary, names of commanding oficers, rates of fire, morale, plus lots more. It would be possible to create a Rorke's Drift scenerio because all the components are there.

The game is designed to run on a Intel 486 computer. I couldnt get it to work on my Pentium 4 computer so i used a 486 emulator (Bochs), a few tweaks here and there and the game runs superbly, with sound also. For those that have not seen the game, I've made a few screen shots. Hope you can view them.

thanks for the tip, I tried to play it on dosbox recently and it was very slow. Never heard of "bochs" so I'll give it a try. Very Happy
