Well it seems that I have been remiss again, having disappeared for a while from the blogging scene! I must apologise for this dereliction of duty...work has been hectic and so my hobby time has been sadly curtailed of late.

However on the plus side it seems that my second career as a Wargames Journalist has begun to take off, which is very encouraging.

After having a couple of articles published in Issues 79 and 82 of Wargames, Soldiers and Strategy I am pleased to say that I now have a full four page spread in the latest issue of that veritable publication (Issue 84).



In fact this article is also accompanied by numerous photographs of my models in action - if you look closely at the bottom right of the front cover above you can see my Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel Knights (as featured in last year's BOYL15 Game: Fallout vs Rogue Trader).



The actual article itself focuses on facilitating games set during the post-apocalypse utilising a variety of rule sets and available models.

Throughout the piece there are some decent photographs of my models including my Enclave Troops, NCR Rangers and Necromunda gangers.

The rules I've looked at in depth are, Tomorrow's War, This is Not a Test and Black Ops.



I have also custom written two post-apocalyptic scenarios that can either be played as stand alone missions or as the basis of a larger campaign if it tickles your fancy.

It is my sincere desire that this article will bring general PA gaming more into the main stream and hopefully draw in a few more adherents to this particularly cool niche of our hobby!

Also later in the magazine I have written a one page review on Terminator: Genisys, The Miniatures Game, which will hopefully prove informative for those of you considering giving this particularly game a whirl.

If you're interested in reading either articles then you can order the magazine at:

Congratulations on having your articles published!

Sorry to see Wreck Age didn't make the post apocalyptic game list, though! Maybe next time.

Cheers mate!

Sadly I had a pretty rigorous word limit to stick to, however I'm already drafting my next article so there's definitely room for expansion!

Nice article, well written!

It's a really good mag actually, think the bi-monthly format suits it well. Probably my favourite wargaming mag on sale at the moment in terms of the article content.

Cheers mate! I have to say WSS has always been a favourite of mine even before I started writing for them.
