Indeed an interesting campaign... Polish gun-armed Renault FT tanks, various odd home-made designs and it is also where the obsolete pre-war aircraft went to die, once numbers of German/Italian/Russian ones appeared on the Central Front. Of course it also has Asturian dinamiteros in spades.

The latest Painting War comes with two free figures - will we see any freebies with the SCW edition?

In the meantime, this looks well worth a purchase
an often forgotten theatre in the SCW

Different forces in action, and you get to chuck your Carlist and CTV forces onto the board.

I'm aiming to get forces ready for a demo game to do the circuit next year  :D

I bought the Viscaya edition last weekend. I am quite impressed, a lot of info if you can read Spanish, a lot of diagrams and pictures if you can't. I will be getting the ones on the Ebro and Madrid. There's also one coming up on the Alhucemas Landing if you're into the Rif War.

I ordered the Vizcaya and Madrid ones last week. Missed the Ebro one though :/

I hope to use Asturias as a setting for my SCW, as paraiso natural it's green and mountainous, don't know yet how to depict that all on table top though :D

The Ebro one is under 'special editions'... 20 pages more, slightly higher price.

Alhucemas Landing in the Rif War, I read it was more of a news paper pr display, than a fight your way off the Beaches
But if it has some good Colour pictures, then I will pick it up.
Most of the pictures I have are from the 1920's mags, plus 90% of the books written in English.

Well it was more like Anzio than Normandy, but defence was stiff enough to force the battleship Alfonso XIII to move out of range. The major fighting took place some days later when the Riffis counter-attacked the beach head and in the Spanish assault on Mount Malmusi a short time after.

For those in the know, is it possible to pre-order the SCW Painting War issue so that I won't miss it by any chance?

'Those'? AFAIK there is only Durutti who knows of it... personally I think he's making it up to tease us.  ;)

When? Where?

Yeah, what is this? A video (showing my age!  ;)), a book, a magazine?
