[Plynkes]

Volume Seven of the collected Charley's War. Totally forgot to get it when it came out last Autumn. Pre-ordered the next one while I was about it so that doesn't happen again.

They're up to the point in the 80s now when I had stopped reading Battle in favour of 2000AD, so these latest volumes contain narrative entirely new to me.

[General Roos]

Chaos in Cairo rules. 5 days from Old Glory in U.S to the General in Sweden!

Quite timely in regards to the fact that SKP Models has released 4 WWII female figures in 1/35, including a young Princess Elizabeth.

It must be said though, that unlike some of the American uniforms, there is no way that British battledress can make a woman look feminine! Let's face it, it's ugly enough on the guys!

Lots of pictures from re-enactors, making it a great `tool aid` for painting my blueshirts

[Tomsche]

An old Military Modelling supplement book that came along with the magazine somewhere in the early 90s and detailing how to wargame Siege games.  Turned up in the old magazines clear out at TSA `for grabs`.

Victory Decision: World War II

just got the pdf of Agis's new rules (see the new forum on the WW2 board)

almost worth buying just for the pics of his glorious models alone
