In the October edition – number 475 of Miniature Wargames – we have another thought provoking – and fun – issue!

On the cover we have The Good Fight.

In The Hood Who Was Good we revisit ‘merry old England’. Buck Surdo wrote us an introduction to his rule Feudal Patrol set in issue 459 so here are another trio of Robin Hood Scenarios that can be used for any rules system.

In Command Decision Jon Sutherland looks at looks at examples from Ancients to Ramilles to analyse Forced Marches in wargaming.
