Re: S&T

razorboy, what does "S&T" stand for...what company (or is that the company name)? I don't recognize it.

Magna, the fold-out (or fold-up) paper maps were quite popular...especially for the manufactures, as I suspect it reduced their overhead substantially...and I have quite a few games with them, most notably Victory Games titles. I guess not everyone had the resources Avalon Hill had in producing high quality, glossy hard boards; not that the paper versions are less quality by any means, as most are quite well done. The issue I see with the paper maps are: they are more prone to wrinkles, tears, stains, and all other sorts of wear-and-tear; they can "ridge" at the folds, creating nasty annoyances in unit movement and placement; and tend to not age as well, yellow unseemly, as they are not laminated.
