There’s more than just the theme

There’s plenty more outside of the theme, such as the columns by Rick Priestley, Richard Clarke and Martin Onderdonck, the report on the Great Wargaming Survey (see also our blog roundup),and  an interview with Joe Krone about his recent ruleset ‘Land of the Free’ published by Osprey. Further, there’s a ‘Let’s Play’ of the new SAGA Crescent and Cross rules, scenarios for the Battle of Magnesia, the Invasion of Gotland (with Lion Rampant), the battle of Belize, Allen Curtis’ final article about passing the hobby onto his son and Steve Jones shows how he improves his terrain boards. All that, as well as reviews of books, miniatures, rulesets and boardgames. How did we pack all that in?
