EDITORIAL

Hurray for free stuff! And here’s some of it right now with your latest issue of Wargames Illustrated magazine. The Scottish Covenanters played a key role in the English Civil Wars, and now their 15mm(ish) plastic decedents can do the same in your Pike & Shotte battles thanks to this Epic Battles freebie. Find out how to get your Covenanters brushed up for the tabletop on page 74.

When we’re not throwing freebies at you (not literally, those pikes could have someone’s eye out), we are entertaining you in this issue with not only our Pulp theme – covering everything from Nazis on the moon, to the Cult of Dracula – but myriad other quality articles that take you from a stunning American Civil War tabletop to Prince Rupert in the Jungles of Africa, via Charles Grant, and crusader action in the Holy Land. Plus, much more besides.
