The game has just moved into its 8th Edition of the rules and promises to be fantastic!  An all new full colour rule book shows off how great the game is going to be, so dig out your old armies and pop down to the club to give it a go.

Derby Wargames Society members can also get some great discounts on the new book.  More details of this can be found in the members section of the forums

Get on the forums, arrange some games and lets see you all playing it down the club!
