Browsing the February copy - there's a big feature on this by a certain Mr Priestley, and Mr Stallard and Mr Priestley have an battle report/article about fighting Rorke's Drift using the Black Powder rules. There's also a couple of Zulu vs Zulu scenarios for Hail Caesar!

Sounds excellent, now just as soon as I can get back to the UK I can read it! I had been a little worried that the rules might not suit a shooting vs stabby army and would love to see a report that shows it working or not.

Yeah, in the UK they come out towards the end of the month before. If you have a sub you get it earlier again.

I thought about getting a subscription, but the newsstand price is the same price and I want to support my local hobby shop - even if they don't carry minis.

I had a quick look in WHSMiths, some good article by the look of things but I just daren't buy this issue, after managing to persuade my self not to start AZW.

Doh! Been looking out for this one but W.I. haven't updated their site yet, I even sent my wife into Smiths in her lunch break and she phoned to say "There's some guy on a white horse on the front"!

Sorry Correus her words not mine, but she's Scottish so it probably doesn't count
