The crisis at Ladysmith has hopefully passed although it should be noted that Yule only brings with him the understrength King's Royal Rifles and 53rd Field Artillery and the garrison will still be outnumbered by the Boers.
Very exciting stuff Ian! I let out a sigh of relief when De Wet rolled 3! Things are still looking good for the British!
ReplyDeleteSo more time to dig in and reinforce, De Wet will be sorry if he carries on.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Mr Botha!
Oops! That should've been Mr Kruger.
