Hullo,
A while back I wrote an article about Longstreet with Pendrakn figs for a local wargaming fanzine published by our club. I sent a physical copy to Leon, the rest of us can enjoy it as a pdf, downloadable from

It is in Finnish, so some of the articles might be a tad hard to decrypt...

What's Finnish for "Dark Lord"?

Thats a really good looking publication (I have no idea about the words  ) As a club I'm really impressed that you put together something of that quality and length, how often is it produced?

Usually "Pimeyden ruhtinas" would be a good translation when referring to the devil, literally "lord of the darkness". If the chap in question is not at a sauron level of darkness but a lord who happens to be a bit unsavory, then one would have to come up with a term that fits the context. Ruhtinas, Herra, Valtias and Prinssi are potential words for Lord, Pimeyden, Kadotuksen could be good for the "of darkness".
Literal "Dark Lord" ie "Pimeä Ruhtinas" means "A lord who is a bit daft".
Do you have a specific need for the term?

It is a work of love by two of the chaps, and they produce it roughly yearly it seems. One of them is a professional graphics designer, so reaching high standards is not too much of a problem for them. The rest of us chip in with content. I am quite impressed with the effort they put in. And money from their own pockets, as the printed issues are handed out at conventions for free.

Very, very nicely produced

Very nice looking publication. 

Nobby (fsn) wants to know what 'Dark Lord' is in Finnish, as he refers to Leon as 'The Dark Lord'.

I find that the translation of Primea Ruhtinas to, 'A Lord who is a bit daft' somewhat ironic........ in Nobby's case.

Great looking publication.

That's really first class; the naval game reminds me of a game the legendary 'Slim' Mumford put on decades ago in Glasgow; each ship had a signal mast positioned next to it; all communication was by flag, no talking allowed, interesting outcomes 

Some lovely looking eye-candy in there. Nicely produced too.

I remember those games.

I still have all my ships. I still have bits of other peoples ships, I still have ships in their original packaging.
