Product Spotlights galore this week. We also have a new Flames Of War poll so you can have your say and win some prizes. The late war Normandy Commandos have been updated. We have a report from a tournament in Germany and a whole bunch of new event notices, including another series of games organised by our US office.
Battlefront 2009 Poll
It is time once again to ask for your patience and see what you think in our annual poll. This year we have expanded the list a little to try and find out about a few other areas that interest you, for obvious reasons, but in doing so we have been able to put together an impressive assortment of goodies to make the five minutes of your time well worth it.
This year instead of just one big prize we have 51! Yes that’s right 51 lucky people will get one of the following prizes picked at random from all the completed surveys.

New Flames Of War Stores USA and Canada
Robert Villnave presents the newest stores in North America to be stocking Flames Of War.
Firestorm—Bagration
Some time ago we ran an in-house Firestorm campaign at Battlefront HQ. Mike reported on the events, but with the delay in the release of Firestorm—Bagration, the report finished before the release of Firestorm—Bagration.

So with Firestorm—Bagration now out I thought it would be a good time to remind you of this series of campaign reports. Each turn is inter-link so you can cycle through the events of our campaign at your leisure up until the climatic battle for Minsk. |
