Since a couple of days the new issue of Wargames Illustrated is available. Actually nothing too special for a monthly magazine but issue #327 has a very interesting topic: Retreats. Which called some fellows from our wargaming club into play.
A fascinating topic which is accompanied by a couple of excellent miniatures by now. And as you have noticed during the last years some of us fellows are tied to Napeolon's Russia campaign. Thus Wayne Bollands from WI asced us a couple of months ago whether we would be interested to contribute some content to their January issue which is all about retreats.
Gladly we agreed and worked on an article and a scenario about the battle of Krasnyi which took place in November 1812. While my friend Bernhard was working out a Blackpowder scenario I wrote the article about the events and now our humble work is published.
In case that you've read it I would appreciate your feedback very much.
Anyway many thanks to our friends Heinz and Holger for taking part in playtesting the scenario and helping Bernhard to prepare the photos !
Saw this, and I'm looking forward to reading the magazine. Do you know if it is available as a PDF?
ReplyDeleteWI is available as digital copy but I have no idea how exactly it works. Seems that you have to register and then you can buy single issues or subscribe: http://www.wargamesillustrated.net/hobby.aspx?art_id=4241
DeleteIf you have an android device or ipad, you download the app (for free) then you can buy each issue. I don't know if pdf as such is an option.
DeleteFame at last! Well done Sir, I shall have to investigate downloading it later tonight.
