We’re back with the bagged free frames this month, and tied into the recent release of SPQR by Warlord Games, we are hoping that you find your new Caesarian Romans particularly useful for some ‘warband combat in the ancient world’. Whether you use the figures for SPQR or another set of Ancients rules, I’m sure you will agree they are great looking models.

We provide plenty of Caesarian gaming inspiration on page 82.

Away from all things Caesarian, this month’s theme shares our love of talking to ‘creatives’ and getting the inside track on rules and figure design. We have ‘Insider Insight’ for you from the writers of: In Her Majesty’s Name, Lasalle, L’Art de la Guerre, Stargrave, and more, as well as figure companies: Winterdyne Commission Modelling and Dixon Miniatures. They all have interesting takes on game and model production, whether you are familiar with their work or not.

Outside of our theme we have: armoured steam traction engines, painting competitions, Anderson Shelters, Age of Sail action and Winter War Finns – our hobby is nothing if not eclectic!
