As the latest Ragnarok has now been posted out I felt it the opportune moment to comment on it as it is a really good issue.For those that don't know Ragnarok is the journal of the Fantasy & Science Fiction Wargamers and contains lot of interesting and diverse material for F/SF wargamers. The latest issue is no exception with a good mix of fantasy, zombies, hard SF, Victorian SF and even something based around the 40th Anniversary of the Moon landings. A paper journal is posted out to members of the SFSFW but non-members can buy a PDF version at Wargame Vault.
This issue was especially good with a great article on Daleks in SG2 (but still worth reading for use in the likes of Iron Cow and FWC) and an excellent Aeronef scenario based on a historical incident in the Franco-Prussian War. However, my two favourite articles are Zombie Apocalypse, a set of zombie rules and The Eagle Has Landed, a beer 'n' pretzels moon landing game where random encounters range from H.G.Wells' Selentites to Wallace & Gromit!
All in all a cracking read and chock full of great ideas whatever system you currently play..
Thanks for the preview - hope mine arrives soon then :-) I was looking for some zombie rules...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder, I must renew my subscripion. Who wrote the Aeronef scenario - you and you're just being humble once again?
