Clocking in at 148 pages this new format is really a thing of wonder. It new graphic layouts are breathtaking, as well as the new feature formats. Plus the new print paper is very sturdy yet remarkably light and holds a pretty vivid color as well. I like it!

It’s also packed with 22 new features and heralds the return of some old favorites like Blanchitsu, Sprues & Glue, Paint Splatter and more.

Plus this issue had a HUGE 20+ page section of updates for most recent boxed games like Betrayal at Calth, Stormcloud Attack and more.
