Rcd. SIGNAL #86. New that WARGAMERS DIGEST is now going to cover board games as well as miniatures. TSG mentions that THE SPACE GAMER and STELLAR CONQUEST. Rumor that S&T will be dropping one historical article and substituting two MOVES - style article - starting with #53. Lou Zocchi mentions MERCENARY and his latest catalog. "Games" cover MARINE (in Jagdpanther #10); DREADNOUGHT - with comparison to CA (S.P.I.); STAR RAIDER (AWA); MODERN BATTLES quad. and MECH WAR 77 (S.P.I.); FRIEDLAND 1807 (The Brigadier); WORLD WAR I (By Kip Allen, in S&T #51); DUNGEONS & DRAGONS (board game) and THE PETAL THRONE (TSR); THE FALL OF BATAAN (Jagdpanther); KINGMAKER.
From Phil Cohen rcd. the book CHESSERY FOR DUFFER AND MASTER by V.R. Parton. Includes the following games: DUFFERY (Several versions), RETTAH CHESS, SEMI-QUEEN CHESS, ZETA (a game of alignment), MEDDLERS CHESS, CHESS TWEEDLE, TRISCACIA, ALICE CHESS, GRYPHON CHESS, ROYAL FURY.
Also included rough rules for TERRITORIES, KNIGHT FACTOR CHASE, KNIGHT FACTOR NIM, and AMOEBAS.
From jury duty called Manny Lefkowitz to tell him that the SPECTACULARS drawings wouldn't reach him today and that BB could bring duplicates. Not necessary. (Got off jury duty by accident because of mentioning to chief clerk that I was self-employed. A new law that went into effect 9/1/75.)
