The latest issue of Wargames, Soldiers & Strategy is now out.

I have yet to read it all through, but there's a strong Viking theme throughout, with some good artwork and photos of models.

Peter Pig gets a nice mention for the "Comprehensive" range of Vikings, and there's an SCW range ad. There are also WW2 scenarios for both Normandy and Malaya, as well as a host of other reviews and articles. I'm looking forward to reading this one.

I thought the SCW advert would go nicely with the viking theme.

I sensed that there was a cunning plan. Maybe you know what their next theme is?

visually very nice, but a little disappointed on the large amount of space given to Beowulf (?) and also another big article on Maldon - this seems to crop up very regularly in wargame mags these days as the default viking battle. At  least there is a more unusual article on fighting a Norse v Irish battle.

Although maybe not when one considers the imminent release of Saga - age of magic

It does seem that Saga has taken a pragmatic business decision and decided to tap into the very large number of people who play fantasy skirmish games.

The Peter Pig SCW ad dod inform that my wargaming friend that "REO Speedwagon" wasn't just a band. ;D
