EDITORIAL

We’re going mini with this month’s theme, in two senses of the word. A mini trio of articles focused on the Napoleonic Peninsular War, 1807 – 1814, and some free minis are being given away with the magazine*. You will have a frame of either French or British Line Infantry bagged with this magazine – ideal for wargame adventuring in the Iberian Peninsula.

Our Peninsular War articles take in the Siege of Zaragoza, a ‘What If?’ battle around Valladolid, and an ‘On Campaign’ painting guide aimed at capturing that unique Peninsular War look. Those three articles amount to a short, sharp(e), shot of Iberian action, before we move on to some radically different wargaming subjects, including The Other Partizan, Stargrave, Celtic headgear, The Arabian Nights, scratch building, A War Transformed, the Mexican-American War, and more.

Happy reading and rolling.
Dan Faulconbridge
Editor
