Ancient Warfare magazine is not written by in-house editors. We commission articles from expert authors all over the world. Anyone can submit a proposal for an article, either related to a particular theme (see below) or not. If you wish to submit a proposal (title/subtitle, abstract, and a brief biography of yourself), please contact the editor.

Ancient Warfare 104

Theme: Generals and Commanders
Release: October 2025

Ancient Warfare 105

Theme: The Roman legion in the second century AD
Release: December 2025

The second century begins with a great war of conquest, and ends with another civil war between pretenders to the throne. Between those two extremes, there were changes in equipment, the rise of career officers, and the introduction of campaigns fought with detachments, instead of uprooting the entire legion.

Ancient Warfare 106

Theme: Alexander the Great, pt.2
Release: February 2026

We looked at the rise of Macedonia, the campaign into Asia Minor, and the Siege of Tyre in past issues. Now, we have come to the great showdown between Alexander and Darius. With fantastic numbers of troops, contradictory sources, and a lunar eclipse, this should have plenty of meat for us to chew on.

Ancient Warfare 107

Theme: Augustus' German campaigns
Release: April 2026

Apart from the Varian Disaster, we have barely addressed the first emperor's campaigns into Germania Magna. High time we changed that. This would be a great opportunity to look at Germanic warriors, early Imperial legionaries and auxiliaries, complex logistics, some famous characters, and battles.
