Battle of Brunkeberg 1471 in Miniature Wargames issu 376
« on: August 01, 2014, 07:54:46 AM »


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.

Now you all can read about it in the Miniature Wargames, issu 376, so if you pick up a copy you can learn about some Swedish military history:)

Best regards Michael

Excellent stuff Michael- I take it that you're back from your hols?

That issue will be the first copy of Miniature Wargames that I've bought in ten years then!  :)

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 , havenīt read it yeat but it sure look good and sme Swedish military history are in it, what more to ask for:)

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

Hope you like Janīs 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,
Darrell.
