Conflict. Whether resorted to contest sovereigntyand dominion, or to resolve differences, or defineprinciple and conviction, or to make a stand for thegreater good, conflict is a crucial recourse.Fortunately, not all forms of conflict are waged on awar-torn, embattled front — in fact, many areengaged in an arena limited only by the scope ofour imagination, where the spirit of competitionsupersedes, and in that perspective, Game TradeMagazine excels.
For example, in this month’s cover story, GTMexamines the bad blood stirred among the Kindred inan overview of White Wolf’s Vampire: The EternalStruggle 3rd Edition, complemented by an insightful interviewwith V:TES Lead Designer L. Scott Johnson. Not to be outdone,GTM keeps your competitive edge honed with articles focusing onAtlas Games’ Pieces of Eight, the Baxar’s War expansion for Wizardsof the Coast’s Dreamblade CMG, Fantasy Flight Games’ Marvel Heroes BoardGame, and the upcoming Green Ronin and Games Workshop epic, collaborative undertaking —Warhammer 40,000 Roleplay!
Additionally, we’re elated to welcome best-selling author and ORIGINS and Gamer’s Choiceaward-winning creator Ed Greenwood to the pages of GTM with the first, original, action-packedchapter of a four-part Castlemourn chronicle entitled “The Tree of Swords!”
So, the stage is set! En garde!… and enjoy!
