I tend to only buy magazines that having something of interest to me in them, so I don't subscribe to any of them. However, I've bought three issues of WI this year, and this will make it number four, which means I've bought twice as many WIs as any other magazine. They must be doing something right, especially since I don't play FoW.

They have produced some helicopters but beyond that they recommend other mini manufacturers. <br /><br />I've enjoyed the re-launched WI even though I don't play most of the periods that they have done 'specials' on. This has to be the most Battlefront/FoW heavy issue since the re-launch but I personally don't have a problem with that. <br /><br />WI is not (IMHO) a glorified catalogue like White Dwarf because other companies do get space to advertise their products. Plus the magazine is huge, running to over 110 glossy picture filled pages. I enjoy a range of Wargame and Roleplaying magazines (in both paper & electronic formats) but WI wins hands down as a good read and a source of news and reviews.BigLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00960213980906190335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1298399641711237003.post-12297856094259428662009-11-23T10:32:02.675+00:002009-11-23T10:32:02.675+00:00So what is WI like on a monthly basis?

It looks like it's well worth the money, unlike White Dwarf.<br /><br />Also, you said that the Vietnam stuff is a limited release. Do you mean that it's only going to be available for a limited period, or that they're limiting how much they're releasing for it?Soundwavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08020775753710647790noreply@blogger.com
