Description (375 chars)
VICTORIA CROSS is a block style, area movement game covering the Battle of Rorke's Drift during the Anglo-Zulu war of 1879. The game plays in 2 hours and has 60 blocks, a full color mapboard with a 3d view of the battlefield, charts and dice. The game is very exciting and has many decisions to be made. Playable by the novice gamer and detailed enough for the grognard.
