While it's already been announced in issue 59 and our online newsletter, I wanted to remind everyone that Wargames, Soldiers & Strategy is going to be at Salute 2012. You can find us in booth TA06. We'll have all available copies of WSS for sale in our booth, plus a selection of our other magazines, Ancient Warfare and Medieval Warfare. We're also offering issue 60 early to all Salute attendees - if you aren't going, you'll have to wait a week to get your copy! If you have a subscription, you can pick it up the latest issue for free. You can also place orders with us before the show and pick them up there - a great way to save on shipping. Just let us know in advance. Of course, there will be plenty of Salute-only offers and discounts available too. Even if you don't want to shop, we'd love for you to stop by to chat with us - all the magazine editors will be there, along with at least one regular contributor. We look forward to seeing you there!
Since the entry deadline for our I Heart/Hate WSS contest is now passed, we're very pleased to announce the winners. We received a lot of great ideas and feedback from everyone who entered. We really appreciate all of your contributions. As a reminder, we had two prizes, with winners chosen at random. Congratulations to Phil, who won the copy of SPQR: Volume II The Great Battles of History. Also many congrats to Carl, who is receiving one of Battleflag's new laser cut western buildings with decals. We'll be sending the prizes out to both Carl and Phil very soon. Keep an eye out for our next contest, which is open to everyone and will be announced in the pages of WSS 60. There are even more great prizes and we're making the contest a lot easier this time!
For those of you who don't subscribe to our newsletter, we'd like to let you know about a new contest we're running that's open to all. As we're always trying to get more feedback from our readers regarding Wargames, Soldiers & Strategy, we thought a contest would be the perfect way to stimulate responses. There are two prizes being given away. The first is a complete edition of the boardgame SPQR: Volume II The Great Battles of History. Yes, it's the whole thing with scenarios included, so a really valuable bit of loot! The second prize is one of the unassembled kits from Battleflag's new line of laser-cut western buildings with decals. For more information, have a look at their site. Incidentally, we'll be giving away more goodies from Battleflag in issue 60, so keep an eye out for that.
Wargames, Soldiers & Strategy will have a booth at Crisis in Antwerp on November 5th. If you are planning on coming to this show, please stop by and say hello!

If you'd like to participate in any of these deals, please let us know what you'd like before next Thursday and we'll bring your order along with us to the show. See you soon!
