https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/29375/redvers-reverse-battle-colenso-1899Grand Tactical Situation
REDVERS REVERSE is a solitaire boardgame portraying the Battle of Colenso,
fought on the 15th December 1899 during the Second Anglo-Boer War. 16,700
British troops attempted to cross the Tugela River, defended by 4,500 Boers,
hidden in emplacements and on high ground, to try and relieve the siege of
Ladysmith. The game puts the player in the same position as the British
commander Redvers Buller, with the same constraints of time, poor knowledge of
Boer deployment, unknown locations of drifts and the added problem of
subordinates not acting as instructed.
Game System
REDVERS REVERSE is played in game turns of five phases: Orders, Shell Fire,
Movement, Rifle Fire and Status. Each phase is divided into a variable number of
segments. Orders: British Event, British Command Points, British Send Orders,
British Receive Orders and British Emergency Withdrawal. Shell Fire: Boer Shell
Fire, Boer Recovery and British Shell Fire. Movement: British Movement, British
Assault, Boer Event and Boer Movement. Rifle Fire: British Rifle Fire, British
Recovery and Boer Rifle Fire. Status: Boer Shaken and Victory. Scenarios may
be created allowing the player to set unique situations for each game. An
introductory scenario is also presented.
