To celebrate our ninth book release in our ‘On Bloody Ground’ series of Wargame Rules, we thought we’d run a little competition, both for a bit of light hearted fun, and also as a way to say a big ‘Thank-you’ to all the gamers worldwide that have bought the worlds best Mass Combat Wargame (proof pending, of course!), or even some of our growing ranges of both 28mm and 10mm miniatures. As a small, family run business, we can’t thank you enough for all your support and encouragement.

And so, as a shameless way to hopefully increase gamers awareness of the products we produce, we’re going to run a ‘What period next?’ competition.



It’s free to enter (Although there’s a tiny catch, as always! But all it is, is a ‘Like’ for our Facebook page, and you don’t even have to do that if you email your answers to us!) and we have six prizes to give away.

Now the prizes aren’t going to change your lives, but free stuff is always good to have!

So, our first prize is a £30 voucher, then we have two second prizes of £20 vouchers, and three third prizes of £10 vouchers. All vouchers can be used on our website (Surprise!) and are valid for up to 6 months, so you can buy now, or wait for new releases as they happen.

All correct entries will be entered into a random draw, using one of those clever random draw thingies, and we’ll show a recording of all six prizes being drawn in one go, using the aforementioned technology.

To enter the competition, all you need to do is ‘Like’ our Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/WiPGamesandMiniatures

And comment on the pinned competition post with Up to ‘THREE’ free guesses as to what period you think our next rulebook release for ‘On Bloody Ground’ will be.

For those that don’t use Facebook, all you need to do is email us on the following address, with your three guesses:
wipgamesandminiatures@gmail.com

For those that aren’t sure what periods are already covered, you can check the current range out here:

Now, there are only four people on the planet that know what the new period is going to be so far (we’ve spent the last two weeks disposing of anyone else we might have mentioned it to!), and those four people aren’t allowed to enter (for fear of terrible reprisals), so everything is fair and above board.

If you are also interested in keeping up to date with the On Bloody Ground rules, and wish to share projects or have any questions about the game, please give us a follow here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2739106046226902

The competition is open until midnight GMT on 31st May 2025, with the prize draw completed on Sunday 1st June 2025.

All winners will be notified within 48hrs of the prize draw.

So GOOD LUCK to everyone that enters, and get your thinking caps on!
