Hi

Today is a good day, my birthday and I got the latest Miniature Wargames, issu 376, from my Swedish friend Jan that live in the UK.

The reason that he sent it was that he have writen a very interesting article about his 6mm Battle of Brunkeber 1471 project. Some of you might remember that I have published some pictures of his project here at my blog. (http://dalauppror.blogspot.se/2014/08/battle-of-brunkeberg-1471-in-miniature.html)

Now you all can read about it in the Miniature Wargames, issu 376 (http://www.atlanticpublishers.com/magazines/miniature-wargames/), so if you pick up a copy you can learn about some Swedish military history:)

Best regards Michael

Hi

Appreciated mateys, the day was realy good ! 

I actually got a coffe table book about medieval battles and Brunkeber 1471 was included there to:) You can get that book in english to, Battles of the Medieval World 1000 - 1500 (http://www.amazon.com/Battles-Medieval-World-1000-1500/dp/0760777799) , haven´t read it yeat but it sure look good and sme Swedish military history are in it, what more to ask for:)

Miniature Wargames aren´t a magazine I either use to bay, WSS are more my cup of the.

Hope you like Jan´s article and learn a bit about the obscure Swedish medieval history.

Best regards Michael

Thanks for that Michael.....  8).

when you've given it a read would you mind reviewing it, time permitting of course, especially in reference to the Battle of Brunkeber 1471 please?

Same here to be honest though I do still buy Wargames Illustrated.

Cheers,
