About the game
The Umenzi Tribesmen is the sixth faction for Battleground: Fantasy Warfare, the award-winning tabletop wargame in which cards, rather than expensive miniatures, represent your forces. The Umenzi Tribesmen draws inspiration from the great Zulu armies of earth as well as a cinematic take on Voodoo, adding a new level of magic to Battleground play. As with previous Battleground factions, the Umenzi Tribesmen is packaged in two decks. Starter decks include all the cards needed to play -- 18 units, the 30-card Command deck and two reference cards -- plus the basic rules. Reinforcement decks include 50 unit cards, including two types not found in the Starter, plus the advanced rules.
