Thanks for any votes so far, it'd be great to see BKC get a place in the rules category after all of the work that's gone into it.

So warlord games put an announcement on their facebook that they won best costumer service, best range and best new rules. Did anyone see the results somewhere?

Must have missed it   :-\

Just read that frostgrave won best rules, but that a complete list is not yet published. Strange that they don't release it all at once!

Last time I bought a copy of Wargames Illustrated, admittedly a couple of years ago, it seemed, to me, to be no more than a vehicle for pushing Warlord Games products.  My perception was that the two seemed to be joined at the hip, so people buying the former are likely to be customers of the latter, are they not?

Yup. That's why I stopped reading it.

The 'full announcement' is on their Facebook page. Unsurprisingly dominated by 28mm.
Title: Re: Wargames illustrated awards 2019.
Post by: John Cook on 08 December 2019, 11:12:30 AM
Wargames Illustrated is dominated by 28mm because it is a vehicle for Warlord Games.  Most of its readers are Warlord Games customers so any awards they give out are bound to be slanted by a flawed poll.

Post by: FierceKitty on 08 December 2019, 11:33:52 AM
...which suggests an obvious course of action for Pendraken, what?

While that might be so, last year did see Leon en co in second place for customer service.

Now i wonder if that had anything to do with the announcement of replacing of the bkcIII books. Maybe folks saw that as a reason to vote for a customer service award?

It feels a little bit like White Dwarf polling for "Favourite fantasy system", "Favourite 40th millenium ststem" and "Favourite fantasy races sports simulation".

Shouldn't really grumble, it's a sign of the diversity of the hobby; or perhaps Balkanisation.

Wargames Illustrated is about as relevant to my wargaming as golf clubs are.
