I grew up reading gaming magazines. My dad had a subscription to The General, Avalon Hill’s house magazine. I would pick up issues of White Dwarf and Autoduel Quarterly from the game store and devour them. I have been pleasantly surprised to find out that there are a large number of game magazines that are published in digital format and that are released for free on The internet.
One magazine that I have found is Warning Order. Warning Order is a free magazine published by the Wasatch Front Historical Gaming Society. They have just released issue 48, and their entire backlog is available for download from their website.
Warning Order focuses on miniature wargaming and board wargames. Each issue usually has some battle reports, game reviews, and other miscellaneous articles. One cool feature that started in issue 36 is the inclusion of scenarios for miniatures games. I also enjoy looking at all the pictures of painted miniatures set up for battle.
The latest issue (48) has a review of Twilight Imperium Fourth Edition, a review of GMT’s Next War: Poland, an interesting article on the current state of hobby gaming, and some battle reports. If you are a fan of miniatures and Wargames I would check out Warning Order. All 48 issues are free to download at http://www.wfhgs.com/wrngorder.html
