Apologizes for my ignorance because surely I am asking a dumb question.
I am reading the book Rorke's Drift 1879 'Pinned like rats in a hole' and in the Order of Battle in British side I saw Royal Artillery Bombardier T.Lewis, Wheeler J.Cantwell, Gunners A. Evans and A. Howard. I also saw the film Zulu (1964) and I don't remember the use of artillery (but it is also true that you can't trust a film). Did the British used artillery for this battle? and what about cavalry?
I am trying to remake this battle in Napoleon Total War with the same amount of units but it's impossible to beat 3000 zulu with only 140 men. How on earth only 140 men could defeat 3000 zulu? This is 21 zulu per british, a bigger ratio than Isandlwana.
