Games and Magazines since 2017

This is a listing of the magazines and games that I have bought since 2017.  I have some 20 huge boxes that are filled with games, from old AH, to SPI, to VG to West End, to you name it and a ton of 15mm minis. I just don't feel like listing everything. :D

If and when I can get off my butt to read the rules and mount the counters for the pnp or pod games, I will review.  But in the mean time, I am not sure why I list these games. 

Magazines I read:

Against the Odds (ATO) - a gaming magazine that is very popular. Four issues a year plus an Annual. As a Christmas present from my daughter, I liked it so well, I paid for another 3 years. Hopefully, I will be around to enjoy.  Well written but to be honest, most of the games are not ones I am interested in (just like the old S&T). A side benefit to this magazine are the postal card games and the small bonus games and that is what I like. 

Please do note, ATO has gone away from being subscription based.  Don't know why, but it has.  However, if you write to the publisher, he will probably send you a return email with a subscription price!!!
