I would help out but I am already doing one for the Polish V Corps.

They sure were good issues. For those that might be interested: does Admin points go with it?

Marco,

I have some material for the Newsletter from this year battlefield tours, etc. But I do not think I can afford running the whole project.

Dear All, thanks for the response. Making such a newsletter is basicly simply a question of collecting news from the armies and add extra articles. It can be collected in a Word document or PDF...and then we can place it on the NWC website. The frequency is up to the auditor. Anyone can do this. But it requires some time to do it. Time which I don't have, doing many other things for the club.

Anybody interested? I can help to set the system up.[:)]

That's the simple part, yes. But do the armies write up their news? Who writes articles? I believe that's why newsletters die ... not because the editors fail, but because they depend on other people to deliver the stuff, and most people these days prefer gaming to writing, it seems.

Again I ask: do the folks that help out get points for this? Might help to have some sort of incentive.

Its not like the economy has hit Admin points hard ...

Cliff - I came up with the idea of a newsletter for our Corps as a means of keeping the members informed of events we will have as well as to keep a line of communications open with HQ to the officers.

A newsletter is a good idea for the club. It does require someone to co-ordinate, review, browse, prod and entice people to provide input. It might seem easy but you need the interest,commitment and some skill.

Our last newsletter were amazing a product of many hours of work. A simpler format would be welcome just to keep people aware of what's going on in the club, armies etc..

I can help but cannot be lead.

Thanks John. I feel that anyone that puts that much work into something should be getting some Admin points for it.

The number of points is up to the Army CinC...

Members of the AdR who contribute or activley help support/maiantain
will get 10 points.

Before we venture down this road, lets make sure we have staff in place to work on this and keep it going.

I can't speak for all the Allied Armies (they each have their own rules and approaches) but I can certainly say that would qualify for the 10pts that John mentions in the Austrian Army
