wargames illustrated issue WI415 july 2022
from the editor
It was great to feel the buzz at the Partizan Wargames Show in Newark, Nottinghamshire recently. So
enthused where we by the excitement of the crowds and the quality of the demo games on offer we
struggled to contain our report on the show to ten pages, but we did just manage it, with the proviso
that there is more to see online - head to wargamesillustrated.net
Our theme for this issue is New Napoleonics and we try to cover all bases under that umbrella - new to
Napoleonics, new Napoleonic rules, new Napoleonic figures, and a project to create a new Napoleonic
force from recycled stock.
OBSERVATION POST ................. 14
When we’re not looking at new Napoleonics we have a bumper collection of other new hobby
releases in Observation Post for you to peruse; everything from plastic Conquistadors to 6mm World
War II vehicles.
So with a spring in our step, lets leap forward and see “what’s new?”.
