Useful guides and maps
The first set of guides and maps shows you how to get to Speldhurst Village Hall. The "Getting to Speldhurst" guide includes photographs and a description of the route to follow when approaching from various directions. "TWWS Maps" are a set showing the wider area and then more detailed road plans when you get near and in the village.

Rank and File
For many years the Society ran its own magazine, called Rank and File. The contributions were made by many members and covered a variety of matters. There were a great many battle reports, written usually in the form of memoirs of the officers who had fought. These are very often amusing with plenty of anecdotes recording the activities, successes and dismal failures of the participants. There are also reports on visits to the early wargames shows, some of which were already quite large, others smaller. Some later magazines contain articles about painting your models and collecting more obscure armies.
The files have been created from the original documents, which have been scanned. Personal contact details of members have been redacted. Please also note that these files will have to be downloaded and extracted from their Zip Files in order to read them.
Rank and File 1976 to 1984 (Zipped PDF)
Rank and File 1991 to 1992 (Zipped PDF)
Rank and File 1993 to 1994 (Zipped PDF)
Rank and File 1995, 1996, 1998 (Zipped PDF)
Rank and File 2000s (Zipped PDF)
In some cases the quality may not be ideal, but the please bear in mind that the earliest ones date back to the 1970's. The files are all PDFs; they are collated into Zip files, covering specific periods of time, that you may download and extract. We hope you enjoy reading what is in part a potted history of the Society.
