A good shot of Zululand

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

Nice. Some of the graphics are quite unique. Love the "leaning tree" terrain. Is "Herd of Cattle" a substitute for irrigation, or is that a type of terrain?

Shaka Naldur, once the scenario is ready I give you a call! The scenario is meant to be played as the Zulus.
It starts in the early 1800's, so the Boer city placement doesn't become historically correct till later on, but oh well! I have done pretty much all of the units, the terrian and the cities. The map is done and all the cities have been placed.
Yet, I still need to make icons and the events. So, this could take a while. Since I am no where near done, that leave lots and lots of room for ideas. So let's hear'm!

The pictures look great! Only a little thing, I think the brown color for the Boer civ is a bit too dark, their city names are hard to read.

Got spare money?

Hobbes. It's a real nice idea, and the screenshots look very very well. Did you play my Boer War scenario?

What will it be about exactly? Just Shaka, or all about Zulus till the Anglo-Zulu war?

Allard, the scenario covers Shaka's rule (1816-28),
the Zulu-Boer war(1835), the Anglo-Zulu war(1878) and finally, a bit of the first Anglo-Boer war(1881-1883) and second one(1899-1902).
As the Zulus, your goal is to stay alive. And if you can kick some British or Boer ass while doing it, so be it!

Oh and Allard, I did play your Boer War scenario, that where I got a lot of insperation from it. It's a classic!

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Sounds great! Cheers for the compliment, when I have time, I will make a remake of it. Actually I already made some units for it. If you wish, use it in your scen.



Oh yes, I also uploaded your screenshots there, so that people can see them more easily, without seeing red x's at first:



I hope that this server does not give any red x's otherwise I'll remove them again.

There we go! Now everyone can see the shots. Anyway, great units Allard, I'm going to use the Boer guy with the flag for sure. Oh, do you have a good "Long Tom" unit, for me to use? Thanks.

Ah, good old General Cronje.

I have just Alex's Long Tom unit, which you too must have, doubtlessly. I made another large gun too, though, modelled after the "Joe Chamberlain", a converted 4.7 naval gun, that could pass with some imagination/editing as a Long Tom.
The other artillery in my previous units, btw, was a Creusot 75 mm field gun.



There's also a Botha here, and some flags you might find useful.
