The battle of Islawanda was the single greatest defeat of the British army by a colonial force ever. Lord Chelmsford's hope of a quick defeat of Cetshwayo's Zulu army was quickly dashed with the annihilation of the 850-plus men of his command. The Collectors Showcase re-introduces this tumultuous battle with a RHA 7 pound field piece, a 24th Foot firing line and a bevy of Mbonambi native attackers. These sets allow for an excellent diorama that captures the horror of 20,000 Zulu natives descending on the vulnerable British column.
