There is a notice of format change for Guidon Games Boardgames: "The boards are no longer mounted but come as 12 gum-backed sheets which you can glue down to any suitable piece of cardboard, or even wood or other hard paneling. They are packed in an envelope instead of a box. All other components are unchanged, including the die-cut unit counters."
