They were only assembled in times of trouble, but despite their part-time status they were well-equipped and armed with pistols and carbines, being capable of firing from the saddle or dismounting to give deadly volley fire. The Natal Mounted Police was created in 1873 to bolster the defences of Natal. It enlisted European officers, NCOs and natives. Their smart dark uniforms and contrasting white helmets make them a colourful addition to any General’s army on the tabletop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Natal Native Contingent was a large force of auxiliary soldiers in British South Africa, forming a substantial portion of the defence forces of the British colony of Natal. The Contingent saw action during the 1879 Anglo-Zulu War. Most enlisted troops were drawn from the Basuto and Mpondo people, which had had long experience fighting the Zulus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis box lets you add a cavalry force to your British collection, giving you six mounted and eight dismounted small units of cavalrymen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContents:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 bases of Natal Native Contingent Cavalry (3 Small units)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 bases of Natal Mounted Police\/Carbineers (3 Small units)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 bases of Dismounted Natal Native Contingent Cavalry (4 Small units)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 bases of Dismounted Natal Police\/Carbineers (4 Small units)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic bases\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWarlord Games is proud to partner with KHULA Education, operating name of the David Rattray Foundation, which supports children and young people from preschool through to employment, working with schools, educators and communities to strengthen learning and unlock opportunity in rural KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.
