Let’s face it, there are a lot of us war-gamers who yearn for the good ole’ days of the Cold War. Back then there was a clear good guy and a clear bad guy in the world, and it all made more sense. After the fall of the Berlin Wall many of us still wondered, What would have happened if the “balloon went up” during the 1980’s and the Warsaw Pact attacked NATO or the bad guy attacked the good guy (depending on what side of the curtain you where on)?

I have fond memories of popping into what might be the premiere location in Chicago to buy magazines, the Six Corners City News Stand located on Cicero near Irving Park Road. I’m pretty sure the place is still kicking although I’m sure that they don’t carry the same number of table top gaming related mags as they once did. Honestly, I don’t think there’s a single U.S. based mass market magazine still being sold so I wouldn’t be shocked if they didn’t carry any.
