This list cannot be used for Isandhlwana
as it was actually fought, rather than the battle that would have occurred had
Chelmsford not split his force; nor for Rorkes Drift, which was too small and
not even in Zululand. The other battles were all large enough to be simulated
by HFG. Rorkes Drift can instead be represented as a supply base or strongpoint
on a base edge.
