Welcome to my miniatures and wargames section. Each month I will try to bring you all the latest in the world of table top games and review new miniatures as they become available. I am very lucky as I have a large number of friends and contacts in the gaming industry and I often find out what's due out long before most other people and I normally get sent miniatures to review from a wide range of companies across the globe.

If you are by chance involved with a company who’s products I haven’t yet reviewed you can contact me at the address below as its my aim to catalogue as much of the hobby as I can.

You will also find links to other games and miniature sites on the net here, and contact addresses to most of the major companies. I have been in to table top games for a long time now, well over twenty years, and I have a vast collection of miniatures from all over the world and in many different styles and genres. You will find a lot of articles on wargaming tactics here and space permitting a few scenarios and adventures. So with out further ado!

Warzone is the skirmish combat game set in the far future in a universe that seems to have gone mad.
