Firestorm: Stripes - What Happened
With Phil Yates
Now that Firestorm Stripes has reached its conclusion, Europe is left in a war-torn mess with the exhausted remains of NATO and Warsaw Pact forces thoroughly interleaved in a series of thrusts and counter thrusts.

This week we have picked two winning battle reports and both of them were for the same reasons. A combination of a nice looking table, plenty of fine looking miniatures and some photoshop work on top that really helped to convey the action that was happening! Congratulations to Corsac and Stone. Click on their profiles below to check out their reports.
We will be in touch in the next few days to arrange your prizes.

Finally, we are still tallying up the results for the Limited Edition Club and Store prizes, but will have those announced next week.
Congratulations to everyone that picked up a prize during Firestorm: Stripes.

TANKS FAQ
Over the past couple of months, we have been working a lot more closely with the community and one of the things that has been a high priority for us is to provide a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document. Today we are excited to present the Playtest version of the document. Because the FAQ has been a long time coming we wanted to make sure that as many of your questions were covered off as possible. So rather than presenting the first version of the FAQ as a completed document we wanted to involve the community as we go through our own internal playtesting process. In a few weeks once our process is complete, and we’ve had a chance to review your comments and questions we will issue the document as the first Official TANKS FAQ. Of course, in the meantime there is no reason you can’t use it as it stands now.

We've been busy adding a pile of new product spotlights and assembly guides to the 'Nam website to make it easier to assemble your models as well as checking out what you can expect to find in your blisters. We still have some more to go so keep an eye on the website as we add more content.
There has also been a restock of the range over the last couple of weeks so if you've been waiting to dive in to 'Nam then now as your change whilst the 25% off launch sale is still on.

Firestorm Tunisia - Terrain
The terrain in Tunisia is rugged, unique, and had a major influence on the battles fought there. Several new terrain features are introduced for Firestorm Tunisia. Get ready to encounter vast Salt Beds otherwise known as tank death traps; Rocky Ground that makes it impossible to dig in; Heavy Scrub that is perfect for hiding an ambush; and entrenched, dry water-ways called Wadis that form a natural and formidable defense. Heavy spring rains would then transform these difficult terrains to nearly impassable.

Firestorm Tunisia - Units
One of the exciting features of a Firestorm campaign is the use of additional “free” units that are added to players’ forces for each battle. These additional troops represent the combat power associated with the units fighting on the campaign map – the more units attacking on the map, the greater the force attacking on the battle table.

V4: 12 Months, 8 Books and Counting
A year ago we launched V4 to the world. It was the culmination of many man hours of work throughout the Design Studio, and the entire company. It was fair to say that like all new products that we release there was a mix of excitement and trepidation about how it would be received, especially given the (literally) game changing nature of V4. Now we find ourselves 12 months down the track with tens of thousands of games having been played and more tweets, comments and posts than we could ever hope to track, as well as small mountain of books and models in the hands of new players. We wanted to take a assessment on where V4 sits right now and where we thought it was going, and of course share it with you, our community.

Return Of The Gaming Mat
Last year we released our first Flames Of War double sided gaming mat. Customers with long memories will remember that we suffered from a number of issues outside our control including our manufacturing partner in China pulling a disappearing act, literally packing up their machines and moving without telling anyone.
Now we are ready to release a new version of the mat that incorporates a number of the improvements that customers suggested to us, ranging from some changes to the image on the mat through to how it was packed to avoid creases.
