Thanks M_M,

Yeap, not a bad theme issue; first time I have bought it for ages.

OK, the stats arn't too hard to work out for yourself, but the scenarios, info and pics are good and useful sorce lists.

... now, where did I but that Ford flatbed?

This is a new magazine for me, having been focussed on GW stuffs for the past two decades (I know, I know...).

I picked up the above issue at Crisis in Antwerp this weekend and am already working on a batch of dedicated road sections for the pursuit scenario.  :)

Pics etc to follow...
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

I have also picked up this copy in a fit of inspiration.  It gives me some ideas to use on my boat!

First time I bought this magazine (having been put off Wargames illustrated by it's relentless FOW) and I was impressed. Well worth it for the Gansters articles.

For those in the U.S., WSS is now available at Barnes & Noble (again). I picked up Issue #57 (Pulp theme) a few days ago.

I bought both the WSS and WI in the same shop on the same day.
I have read WSS cover to cover. Loads of interesting stuff.
I have barely glanced through WI, nearly all FOW, not my cut of tea.
Can't recommend WSS enough, great inspiring mag.
