I ordered mine and mentioned Armorama in my comment box, it looks like some real clever ideas well documented. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Pat

Hi Tom,
no, we do not have any vendors yet. :-(
You can order the book directly through our site, and it's 15,75 Euro (cc.23-24 USD) including the shipping costs. Taking that last time when I ordered a book from the US on e-bay the postage was 19 USD, I think it's a fair deal

This morning, I received a copy in the mail for review. It certainly looked good in Pat's original Report - in the 'flesh' it's even better. Superb book...

Thank you Jim, now I know what the actors and actresses feel after the premier, waiting for the first critics. Worse than waiting for a baby to be born

Thank you Carlos, but the credit should go to where it belongs. The author, László Adóba is indeed a superb modeller, me unortunately just a very enthusiast one :-(.
All the works and ideas are his, my part was just persuading him to do it and then structure the raw materials into a readable book. The very simple reason of why I deal with the comments and not him is that he doesn't speak English. He "appointed" me to be the spokesman of our book as we really worked on it together, but the content of the book is his merit alone.
