Wargames Illustrated Site Update
Another month has come and gone, and as WI 269 comes back from the printers, it is once again time to update our site. This month, we are extremely excited to add the WI Vietnam army list PDFs to our ever-growing library of information. This project turned out to be even more successful that we ever expected, and we were pleased to see so many gamers either dusting off old figures, or purchasing new ones to have a go at this interesting period of history.
With the wargames show season about to kick into full swing in the Northern Hemisphere, we know that there'll be mountains of photos of great games and well-painted model soldiers from around the world. Even though we're increasing the size of the magazine with our WI 270 issue, we still don't have enough room for all of them, so we have a report from Paul Davies who visited Warfare 2009 as this month's web exclusive. Keep an eye out for more of these in the future!
