Having trouble viewing the flipbook magazine? View and download it instead! Hurray for free stuff! And here’s some of it right now with your latest issue of Wargames Illustrated magazine. The Scottish Covenanters played a key role in the English Civil Wars, and now their 15mm(ish) plastic decedents can do the same in your Pike & Shotte battles thanks to this Epic Battles freebie.
