Map Description:
An historical recreation of the battle for Rorke's Drift, Natal, South Africa, January 22/23, 1879. Can you and the other 149 members of 2nd Battalion, 24th Regiment of Foot (South Wales Borderers), defend the Mission Station from the 4,500 Zulu warriors now on their way to your location.
Survive the battle and save the Mission Station. Can you win the Victoria Cross? this map has two built-in levels of difficulty. Hopefully you can survive.
This is a recreation. Your only mission is to survive. It does not, and will not play like other SP maps. It is a recreation of an actual event and has been designed to give you a feel of the battle at Rorke's Drift.
Liked it very much but you would need a top end PC for this 1but for some reason I could run straight though the walls couldent clime the ladder also amo packs took a while to pic up etc the after Zulu's arived they don't seem to stop comming lol to me there are to many AIs at the same time causing funny things to happen, but very realistic . A 10ghz PC & ATI 15.000 video card might just cut it,Screen shot has fog in game no fog.
but 9/10 for the idear , action & contruction

My apologies to those who have downloaded prior to this update. I just discovered the wrong mission brief '.pcx' file was included in the zip file. A correction has been made and update here. - For Who42 - the fog is actually smoke from the burning roof of the hospital building. As for walking thru buildings - unfortunately that's as good as I can get it. because it was necessary to fabricate the buildings there are so many objects involved, this temporary glitch is present. It does not last for entire game and starts only after main Zulu attack. If anyone can fabricate buildings for me I'll update the map and problem will go away.

I reccomend this map to anyone who likes anything, anywhere. Very well put together, good use of the WAC commands, i got bored so i edited it so the enemys respawn 10 times instead of 5,think i might edit it to be coop and play it with my friends(unless you dont want that.)
All and all this is the best SP map that any user has made that i've come across
» Good SP mission

This map, somehow just make me remember back in the past few years when I play missions A & D in DFLW. Very clear map. Very well to make a house but too much flashing. Cause this problem I give 8/10. Thx for the map and I enjoy.
