A Blog post about my memories of the magazine, brought back to life by some recently bought volumes:

Steve

Thanks for sharing.  A lot of memories and indeed the genesis of the hobby of wargaming.   We are a descendant of military modelling, bur rather than keep our models static we preferred to give them life.

But the modelling and painting remains a key element in the hobby.   Dare I say it, so does the collecting and hoarding.

Regards

James

Very true James. From my initial flick through you can see the germ of a change towards some articles and adverts for wargaming in Volume 12.
