My favourite new bits in the Membership archive

Posted by Ed on May 19, 2009

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.
