I hate to say this, but for the first time, I think that I am going to have to pass on this...there has been too much ASL lately. The Cholm HASL took all the ASL money I had available, and Crucible of Steel is coming around ASLOK and will be around $100 (estimated), and all of the ASLOK releases are just two months away which will be around $75+. With the massive increases in tuition, I just don't have the money to spend on a magazine that only has ASL crumbs in it...two ASL and two SK scenarios just doesn't get my purchase any more when there is far too much good ASL available from TPP's. (I know there are ASL articles in it, but I can't play an article.) I only play ASL, so while it is entertaining to read about other games, they are not a value to me. I purchased the Special Editions previously, but have not so much as touched the games that came in them.
I can't believe that I am saying this, but there is too much ASL on the market right now. With very limited funds and too many products on the market, I am forced to be selective in where I spend my few ASL dollars. I have always supported MMP and purchased every ASL release...but in todays ASL economy, I just can't afford it. I sincerely hope that the magazine is a success for MMP.
Semper Fi!
