Once again, the regular contributors (and there is room for you too, you know) have provided a wide selection of articles covering a range of periods and subjects. This year, we have everything from the Dark Ages to the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, how to paint 6mm figures, part one of an unusual 1744 campaign, Sink the Bismarck – and much more. There are some great scenarios and lots of ideas. I am particularly pleased to include a selection of Indian Army illustration by the late Bob Marrion. Some of these, and there are more, are unsigned and I suspect not previously published.
