Introduction

As part of the National Wargames League, Milton Keynes Wargames Society will again be offering an interesting selection of periods for the 15mm Ancients competition at Campaign. This year the rules used will be Field of Glory. The periods have been carefully chosen to provide a challenging novel wargaming tournament experience at the same time to produce a spectacle for visitors from well known eras of history. Six periods were presented and a vote by last year’s teams honed the selection to the final three.

For entry information, visit the National Wargames League Page.
