Another month, another issue of Alliance Games Game Trade Magazine, covering new releases and the monthly solicitation guide for your Friendly Local Game Shop (FLGS). Here's my take on the new releases, what's cool, what might sell, and some Old Man Yells at Cloud rants on product issues that were just as true in the 80s-90s (when I worked gaming retail) as they are today.
I'm not the demographic of most game companies, and while I max nostalgic for older products I should have bought, or I shouldn't have sold off, I wince at the the prices from 30 years ago. Such is life.
Issue #266 of Game Trade Magazine can be found at your , or online in pdf form here.

The Army Painter
Army Painter has gone a little made with two full ranges of paint: Warpaints Air for the airbrush aficionados and Speedpaints, which apparently should be the "one coat fits all" type of paint, or better put, the type of paint we all used 30+ years ago. Considering I find the coverage with normal Army Painter paints more than acceptable, I'm pondering what type of gel paint these things will turn out to be. Warpaints Air will the $3.50/each, Speedpaints $4.50/each, and the larger bottles or airbrush cleaner, varnishes, and primer got for $6.50-$8.50.
