Battle of Brunkeberg 1471 in Miniature Wargames issu 376

Today is a good day, my birthday and I got the latest Miniature Wargames, issu 376, from my Swedish friend Jan that live in the UK.

The reason that he sent it was that he have writen a very interesting article about his 6mm Battle of Brunkeber 1471 project. Some of you might remember that I have published some pictures of his project here at my blog.

Now you all can read about it in the Miniature Wargames, issu 376, so pick up a copy and learn about some Swedish military history:)

Swedish Allmoge soldiers drawn by Jan and the originale kindley given to me today, 

thanks Jan !!! the best birtday gift one could get:)

Jan´s article are 6 pages and tells a historical background, OOB for Impetus (the rules they used) and also a bit aboit how Jan Built his amasing custom made terrain, as a Jan is a handycraft teacher it is a qualiry build and I hope he will bring it to some UK convention as it is well worth displaying.

Here are the pictures of his gaming board that I showed here at the blog some time ago.

Test base with 6mm Swedish allmoge troops, the rules of chooise will probably be Impetus.
