i have one copy but they are hard to find
Ancient Warfare III.5, 2009
Release October 14th.
Theme: The Imperial Nemesis - Rome vs. Parthia
Introduction: Pawel Grysztar, 'Historical introduction'. Illustrated by Carlos de la Rocha
The Source: Joaquín Montero, 'Trajan's Parthian War. Comments on the literary sources'
On a first approach to the study of the historical sources for Trajan’s campaigns in the East, we can easily extract that they are alike obscure, fragmented, scarce and limited. Today, we know of records from two main historians: Lucius Flavius Arrianus – Arrian – with his primary source Parthica; and a secondary one, Cassius Dio, who condensed Arrian’s version. Of the original 17 books (originally published in 17 scrolls) of the Parthica, only some fragments remain. This inconsistent source will lead us to believe that the most complete account for Trajan’s Parthian War is the sixty-eighth book of Cassius Dio’s Roman History.

The mag is good but cost more than your normal mags
will bring it to clud if you want a look

Thanks Dave

I would like to have a look.

If nobody subscribes on a regular basis I may buy the one that has just come out on pre Roman Italy

[Three]

Dave, I was interested in that one as well, Have you found a supplier?

[Dave K]

I was intending to order direct from their website

[Three]

Want to get me one as well and we can split the postage ?

[Dave K]

Will do Gary.

I tried tonight but hit some problems on the site - I will give it a go again tomorrow

[Three]

Thanks very much, I'll settle up with you on Monday night.

Dave, 3 months trial subscription is 13-35 euros (12-25 plus 1-10 p&p) for 3 issues, seems a decent deal ?

Roughly £12-00

Caliver have recent issues at £6-25, and are asking £22 and £17 for a couple of the early out of print ones!

[Dave K]

I have been offline for a couple of days - I will have a look tonight and get back to you

[Dave K]

The trail subscription loks good - I am going to go for it. Are you going to as well?

I don't mind acting as postman if you want to share postage, or would you rather have the thrill of the mag hitting the mat

[Three]

I wasn't meaning for you to act as postman, plus I doubt they would reduce the postage for 2 to the same address anyway, I'll sort myself out with a trial sub, however if you get yours before me it could end in tears

[Three]

Just done mine.

[Dave K]

Beat me to it
