We’ve got quite a load of articles and news up this week. JP has some news on upcoming Token releases. We feature three great history articles on the North African campaign as well as a North Africa battle report. The chaps from MOAB in Sydney explain the ins and outs of preparing for a tournament. Finally we spotlight next week’s two releases. These artillery batteries will seem familiar, but the new additions to them will make them even better modelling projects. Jagdpanther
