Wargames Illustrated  |  Wi428 August 2023
For this month’s theme, we originally asked several of our regular contributors to ‘revisit’ articles they had written for Wargames Illustrated in the past, and several of them have done that, but as is often the case, our themes and our contributors take the magazine in different and more interesting directions than we planned.
Dan Mersey (Lion Rampant author) has been writing for the magazine for many years, but rather than revisit one of his previous articles he has revisited a late 1970s wargame for us: Thane Tostig. Wargaming luminary, Rick Priestley, tells us about his project to revisit wargames figures from the early ’70s, and in our interview with Alan and Michael Perry we revisit their early historical sculpts for Citadel Miniatures and Wargames Foundry.
Sticking to our original brief, we do have several articles that hark back to previous publications, not least Andy Callan’s American War of Independence rules: Loose Files and American Scramble, which were originally published in Wi001. The rules are published here in their original form, but with added Designer’s Notes which suggest improvements and add insight or rather hindsight.
We don’t generally go big into retro gaming here at Wargames Illustrated – there is too much good stuff happening here and now – and I maintain that this month’s magazine is less about retro and more about revisiting – but we do like to take the opportunity to look back where we came from now and again.
