We’ve teamed up with our friends at Warlord Games to bring you a very special Freebie Frame giveaway* this month. Whether you want to ‘try before you buy’ or expand your existing forces, the US Firefly Jump Infantry or Axis Stahltruppen Heavy Infantry bagged with this issue of Wargames Illustrated are exactly what you need.

As two of the very best frames from the initial wave of Konflikt ’47 releases, the Fireflies and Stahltruppen make a perfect showcase for the 2025 relaunch of Warlord’s weird-World- War-Two game, highlighting the excellent levels of design and production that you can expect from all things K47 going forward.

To accompany your Freebie Frame, we feature a couple of Konflikt ’47-themed articles; we take a look behind the scenes and speak to K47 producers, painters, and designers about the reimagining of the game and its miniatures. Wi’s own brush-wielder Matt Parkes also guides you through his paintwork on the US Firefly Jump Infantry.

If weird war isn’t your bag, we’ve got non-weird Second World War modelling, the Battles of Bouvines and Maldon, First Sikh War, Frostgrave, and loads of new releases for your perusal in Observation Post and Release Radar.
