What is Warning Order?

Warning Order is a free, online, full color wargames journal published by the WFHGS gaming group. Each issue features battle reports and pictures from our games, reviews of gaming products, editorials on the state of the hobby, and many other features. Each issue runs on average from 20-40 pages and is published on an infrequent schedule, but generally three issues per year. We try to feature a good mix of games, reviews, and features that show what the club is currently interested in or what we've been playing recently. In the last several issues we've been running a new series called Engagements, which are ready made scenarios that can be used for a number of periods. Occasionally we will also include a short set of campaign rules for various periods such as To The Coast for modern combat or To Naples for the Renaissance era. Hopefully, most of the features will be interesting to board and miniatures gamers or at least inspire them to try some new rules, products, or board games that they might not ordinarily be interested in.

There are also now quite a few Engagements scenarios, which are designed to allow clubs and gamers who are looking for ready made scenarios that cover all periods. There have been two per issue for several years that cover everything from the Ancients era to WW2/Modern. There is also a board game presence as we do enjoy a good board wargame every now and then! Most of these are 4+ players and suitable for the group's gaming night. Many of us also play board games on the side or while painting up miniatures, so there are usually 1-4 game reviews in each issue as well.
