WI PROJECT MANAGER
James Griffiths
Ever since they were knee-high to a grasshopper, James has been enamoured with wargaming. Now, when he’s not writing in-depth articles for the magazine and managing all projects going in and out of Wi Tower, he spends his free time 3D sculpting and painting minis.
P.S. We promise he’s not as insane as his caricature to the right makes him out to be… (We think).

The Peasant Levy and Foot Knights sets already in Wargames Atlantic’s (WA) Age of Chivalry range are bolstered by a set of professional fighters this month: new plastic Foot Serjeants. These figures look the perfect fit for Dark Ages combat, but it’s fair to say ...
It’s as much a tradition to start the new year with resolutions as it is to have failed to keep to them by February! I don’t make specific resolutions (partly because it invites failure), but I am starting 2025 with some specific Wargames Illustrated goals in min...
Victrix’s plastic Medieval launched with some excellent dynamic mounted Knights [check out the painting guide in Wi442 – Ed]. They looked just perfect to crusade or chevauchée with the best of them, and now, with the release of Islamic Cavalry, Victrix are f...
