1-967036 Hunt, Austin HIDE, STONE, AND BONE: A Paleolithic Skirmish Wargame A skirmish wargame of prehistoric survival. A wargame of hunting and combat in which players lead tribes of early human ancestors as they attempt to survive in the face of the perils of the Ice Age. From season to season, tribes seek to grow and prosper, engaging in various 'Big Days' that represent important events such as mammoth hunts, attacks by cave bears, and clashes with rival tribes. In between these encounters, tribes must gather food, craft tools and weapons, and consult their shamans to prepare themselves for the next threat, be it from enemies, animals, nature, or something stranger. The skirmishes and hunts of Big Days are resolved using a d10-based alternating activation system, but also features a detailed campaign system that forms a core part of the gameplay experience. Ultimately, survival is all -- defeating other tribes is not the sole focus and it is possible for tribes to thrive even if the fortunes of war are against them. Contains options for solo, cooperative, and competitive play.1 vol, 80 pgs 2026 UK, OSPREY PUBLISHING

1-251810 Stone, Dave ZERO HOUR: 20th Century Miniature Wargame Rulebook Step onto the battlefields of the early twentieth century, where the age of rifles met the dawn of mechanized warfare, and every order could mean victory or disaster. Recreates the brutal ebb and flow of the Great War and other conflicts of that era, where commanders wrestle not only with their enemies but with the chaos of modern warfare itself. Designed for battalion-level engagements of around 100 models, typically fought across a 6x4-foot table. Rules detail order system, high command assets, points value for any battalion-sized army of this period, support for larger brigade-level engagements, and operations for both open battle and attack-and-and defend games. Developed with 28mm in mind, but can easily be played at smaller scales.1 vol, 64 pgs 2025 UK, GRIPPING BEAST

1-251820 Albert, Edoardo THE MAN WHO STOPPED THE SULTAN: Gabriele Tadino and the Defence of Europe An extraordinary account of how one man defied the most powerful ruler of his age and in doing so changed the course of European history. This is a fascinating history of crusading knights and gunpowder, of spies and tunnels, and of a crossroads in history when the medieval age gave way to the Renaissance. Weaves together the story of an ordinary man alive in an extraordinary time and performing extraordinary feats of military genius. Through the lens of his life we discover how military tactics and fortifications rapidly changed thanks to the discovery of gunpowder, and how Europe, divided by power-hungry rulers and religion, almost fell to one of the greatest rulers the world has ever seen, but was prevented by a humble engineer.

2-218200 Harrison, Richard THE BATTLE OF MOSCOW 1941-42: The Red Army's Defensive Operations and Counter-Offensive along the Moscow Strategic Direction Detailed examination of one of the major turning points of World War II, as seen from the Soviet side. The work was produced by the Red Army General Staff's military-historical section, which was charged with collecting and analyzing the war's experience and disseminating it to the army's higher echelons. It is divided into three parts, each dealing with a specific phase of the battle. The first traces the Western Front's defensive operations along the Moscow direction during Army Group Center's final push toward the capital in November-December, 1941. Pays particular attention to the Red Army's resistance to the Germans' attempts to outflank Moscow from the north. The second part deals with the first phase of the Red Army's counteroffensive, which was aimed at pushing back the German pincers and removing the immediate threat to Moscow. The final section examines the further development of the counteroffensive until the end of January 1942. This section highlights the Soviet advance all along the front and their determined but unsuccessful attempts to cut off the Germans' Rzhev-Vyaz'ma salient.
