"As the festive season approaches, our Editor's thoughts turn to the future and which titles to commission next. Unfortunately, they have worked so hard this year they are all worn out and can't think of anything."

"Elite units Austrian Napoleonic Wars."

Someone's read too much Scott Bowden – the Austrians were good troops and produced some outstanding units, their generals on the other hand left a lot to be desired.

Before my local library was modenised (i.e. having 60% of the books taken out to give a 'coffee house' feel, leaving only 'yoof' books) I was browsing for good pictures of Napoleonic uniforms.
