MELEE can move and melee you cannot melee then move Must be in base to base contact (always turn to face if not attacked in flank or rear ) 1 base may have to throw up to 4 times if attack by 4 bases Only those bases in base to base contact fight in melee You can still melee if soft/hard cover is in between bases Can only destroy defender base in attackers turn, if even scores defender can continue melee in his turn or move away if not surrounded The defender base cannot destroy attackers base if score is in favour of defender Throw 1xD per base attacker and defender Base British inf British art British Mounted Inf British Dismounted inf British Command inf/cav/cam British Cav/cam British Dismounted cav/cam Boer Inf/Dismounted cav Boer Cavalry Boer art Boer Command inf/cav Irregular Foot Open D6

9 +1 if Zulu/Native/Tribal inf/cav/cam outnumber British 2 to 1 in bases +2 if Zujlu/Native/Tribal inf/cav/cam outnumber British 3 to 1 in bases +3 if Zulu/Native/Tribal inf/cav/cam outnumber British 4 to 1 in bases A base is destroyed when there is a difference of 1 or more Example of outnumbering British A zulu unit of 8 bases (2 lines of 4 all in base to base contact) moves into melee and contacts 4 British bases (1 line of 4 all in base to base contact) You add up the totals and it is 8 for the Zulus and 4 for the British so it is 2 to 1 for the Zulus So each Zulu base in contact (base to base) with the British gets +1 per base in melee. For Outnumbering all Zulu/Native/Tribal units must be in base to base contact to get the addition. MORALE When any unit loses 50% of its total, each base throws 1xD appropriate dice from the Melee table a score of 4 or more and the base continues as normal next move. You must throw each and every move thereafter You cannot surrender unless British versus Boer Example A British Foot Unit of 8 bases has lost 50% In their move each 4 remaining bases throws 1x Scores are So 2 base retreat and 2 remain. Next move at the beginning the 2 remaining bases throw 1x to see if they do not retreat. Who is the winner For each Destroyed base add points value of Melee base together and the winner is the one with the most points i.e British Inf Base Melee 1x so that would be 8 points. RETREAT 1 full move in defenders or your own move Double movement distance i.e British Foot base in retreat moves 10cm
