Wargames Illustrated WI438 - June 2024 Edition

The Thompson submachine gun, Mosin-Nagant rifle, pikes, and chariots are the eclectic mix of instruments of war that were chosen by our contributors to feature in this month’s Weapons theme, along with an article in which we chat to game designer Jervis Johnson and sculpting twins, the Perrys, about how weapons ‘work’ in wargames rules and figure production.

Elsewhere in the magazine, we have your first magazine report on Salute 51 – Europe’s largest wargames show – held at ExCel, London in April. Operating together with our YouTube videos (see the Wi YouTube Channel) and next month’s look at the winning Painting Competition entries – we’re providing you with a complete roundup of this year’s event.

Last Month’s freebie rules – Ruckus – seem to have gone down a storm with all of you who got hold of a copy of Wi437, and author Mike Peters returns in this issue with some ideas and rules for Ruckus campaigning.
