Wargames Illustrated Magazine Wi430 October 2023 Edizione posteriore

Our mentor here at Wargames Illustrated, Duncan Macfarlane, regularly used to quip “What do you call gamers who buy the first edition of your rules? Playtesters”. It’s been a year since Wi teamed up with Jervis Johnson and the Perry twins to bring you the first edition of Valour & Fortitude; in the intervening months V&F has been ‘playtested’ the world over, Jervis has honed the rules and expanded on the examples of play, and we now bring you V&F Second Edition. There have been no sweeping changes made to the rules, but you will find them generally more refined than their first incarnation. I will leave it to Jervis to expand on what you can expect from Valour & Fortitude in year two – take a look at his introduction in the rules booklet.

You will find more V&F content in-mag, with Peninsular War Army Lists and an interview with the boys behind the rules. There’s more online too: a ‘how to play’ video, an interview with Jervis and the Perry twins, and a tour around Alan Perry’s V&F tabletop – all available to view for free via the Wargames Illustrated YouTube page. Elsewhere in the magazine, we’re taking you scenic storytelling, back to Maidstone during the English Civil War, hunting for Viking treasure, on cinematic adventures with 7TV’s revised second edition, and much more besides.
