https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GWS2016



Apart from rolling dice, there seem to be few things wargamers like to do better than discuss the state of their hobby. The purpose of this survey is to answer some of the questions that regularly come up in such debates. Unlike previous editions, results will be published online only for everyone to read.

As before, and thanks to our gracious sponsors, we have quite a few prizes to be won. Leave your email address at the end of the survey to be entered into the raffle. Entering the contest does not automatically mean we'll subscribe you to any communication. That is a separate question which does not influence the raffle in any way.

As a thank-you for taking part, everyone who completes the survey will get a €5 discount code for the Wargames, Soldiers & Strategy / Karwansaray Publishers webshop. Though it does not apply to shipping costs, this code can be used for any (combination of) item(s) in the shop.

Finally, filling out the entire survey shouldn't take more than 5-10 minutes, and we're taking responses until August 19th, 2016.

Thank you very much for your cooperation.

No, it shows up on your screen at the end of the survey.

Of course, I conveniently copied it and then went and purchased a subscription...

...and completely forgot to paste in/use the discount code!

Still, I do enjoy reading a good magazine, so hopefully it is one!
