Thanks to all of you for your fantastic feedback on what titles we should be publishing in the Raid series. I thought you might like to know the confirmed list of Raid subjects for 2010.
They are:
Zeebrugge 1918
Gran Sasso 1943...

In the early hours on June 6, 1944, the largest airborne and amphibious assault the world has ever seen was set into operation. Over 200,000 allied troops descended upon the northern coast of France and in the face of fierce German resistance pushed inland, as wave upon wave of troops invaded the mine-littered beaches.

For those of you who are not in the UK - you probably won't know about this early evening television show which has gained a cult status and following over the last year or so. But we are extremely excited to announce that for the first time ever, an Osprey author will be appearing on The One Show!

Last weekend I had the honor of going to the Museum Store Association trade show in Phoenix, and while my New York colleagues were stuck in a torrential downpour all week, I was off enjoying a variety of museum display items in sunny, 95-degree Arizona. I was particularly excited to meet the reps from Legacy of Valor, who have licensed loads of Osprey artwork to be printed on t-shirts, long sleeve shirts and hoodies (or jumpers, as I think you call them in the UK).

Once a month I will be blogging my favourite piece of members area content. Currently I will choose between a battle map or a plane profile but later in the year we will have all the artwork from the New Vanguard series and most of the Men at Arms uniforms available to our members.
This month I’ve uploaded 95 new plane profiles and plane unit insignia, along with 20 new battle maps. All this content is taken from our May 2009 publications.

Hollywood is all about rebooting characters at the minute. Batman got a reboot. Then the reboot got a sequel which became one of the most successful films of all time. Bond has been rebooted - the humour and gadgets are gone and replaced by gritty punchy seat of your pants action. Which went on to spawn another film. Star Trek has been rebooted, even Wolverine has been rebooted in a way.

Last Saturday Ian Gardner and Roger Day, the authors of Tonight We Die as Men held a signing for their new book in the White Horse bookshop in Marlborough.
The day was a great success, with people queuing up to have a quick chat with the authors and get their copy of the book signed. In addition to this, a group of re-enactors also appeared on the scene, kitted up in all of their gear.

On February 20-21 the Osprey New York office, together with our intrepid freelancer, Larry Weindorf, schlepped up to White Plains New York for WRAM, the annual aero modeling swap-meet and contest. Unlike other aviation events where the focus is firmly on vintage WWII aircraft and/or modern military demonstration teams, this show brings out a large number of WWI and golden era enthusiasts.

Every now and then we like to try something a little different. Last year it was the hugely popular Men-at-Arms Celebration. This year our departure from our usual book publishing programme came in the form of Battle: The Osprey Postcard Collection.
