Musings:
Editorial says Grenadier Models originally had six employees and one machine when it first started operating in 1976. By 1983, they had grown into what they called a multi-million dollar company with a large factory, and state of the art equipment and almost fifty employees. At time of this print, they claimed to have the 3rd highest sales in fantasy game companies behind only TSR and Avalon Hill.
Subscription notice: beginning with issue #13 it is planned that they will begin charging for subscriptions. Apparently, the original printing of the first issues began with less than 2000 but had swollen to nearly 14,000 as of this issue. This is the first mention of publication schedule that I could find. The subscription is $2.00 for six issues over the course of a year. _________________
