So, would the British win if they ran straight off the table and avoided any contact?
I only ask because, in the absence of anything to hide behind, that's my favoured tactic.

"The British must escape as best they are able but this should not be a precipitate retreat as they desire to do as much damage as possible to their Zulu enemies."
And you'd be no fun to game with.

But just in case you should encounter a cowardly cove like me, perhaps the scoring options shouldn't reward such appalling behaviour? Maybe give the Zulus points for protecting their cattle etc?
To be perfectly honest, all my pals are fire-breathing types, mostly ex-army & profligate with the fate of their little metal & plastic charges.
I'm the 'cowardly custard' member of the group.

Sadly, later than I'd like. The local dictator has her minions shooting anyone who dares cross the state borders. Well.....maybe not shooting but it's not allowed.
