Yes a full thirty six page magazine about Flintloque, Firefight, DarkeStorme, Firefight, Age of Might and Steel and Alien Squad Leader is online for free.
Back in 2010 Alternative Armies published a short lived paper magazine called Barking Irons. It featured content for many of our game systems and developed a loyal following right from the start. The paper magazines are now sold out and while elements of each can be had online they are not presented anywhere in full to be read. With this in mind and also that we are not likely to be publishing more issues of the magazine we have placed this issue in full on the Notables Yahoo Group. Its free and for you to read.
There are some six hundred and fifty members of the Notables Yahoo Group and its a place where there is more than 100mb of free files, hundreds of pictures, a legacy of more than twenty thousand messages along with wargamers to talk to. I also frequent the group several times a day and I am always happy to pitch in on all conversations including items not to appear here. Its well worth joining this Yahoo Group and while you must apply to join this is just a formality and I will sign you in (which you need do only once) where you can pull up a virtual armchair and talk about our games and miniatures. Here is the link: Notables Group.
Once in the group just click on the link for FILES and then on the Barking Irons folder to get the free PDFs. The next issue will be published onto the group in a few weeks time as well. Here is what is in this issue.
