Well, it looks like I have my Christmas wish-list finalised.
Rising Sun, Hollow Legions in January, then hopefully (please MMP?) Doomed Battalions reprint. And if I were especially lucky, some more pdf goodies for out of print items like Operations Special Issues (please please MMP?). I've been ever so good :D

The folks at MMP hope to have Hollow Legions out by Winter Offensive 2021 (January).
I received two copies of HL as part of Games for Life. We gave one away at Oktoberfest to the player with the worst record. ???

I have to say I'm looking forward to Hollow Legions a fair bit
(just need to try and find the money to cover it now is all)

Does anyone know if/when Hollow Legions will be available for pre-order? Or is it just going to show up as available for purchase in Jan after WO 2021? Of course I have the previous edition, along with all the boards in SK style, along with CH Soldiers of the Negus...so why am I going to get it? Because it is new from MMP! Hahaha! Same reason I pre-ordered another Rising Sun I guess. I wish MMP would switch over to coloured counters though. I only use BGD and LFT Italian counters personally. Much more attractive.

I want to order HL and DB simply for the higher quality components. I actually find it harder to identify AFVs that have been colorized and prefer the black and white versions for my old eyes, but YMMV.

I can certainly understand your point on the vehs. I guess in my mid-50s...I am still a young player! The font on the TPP veh counters is still large enough for me.
I am a model maker...hence my interest in coloured veh/squad counters. And my use of the veh specific turrets vice the generic white ones. But as long as we all keep playing, I don't care if someone uses white squares of paper with ASL values scribbled on them!
