Due to work commitments, I will not be present for the month of July. Therefore, I have decided, to leave the news of the Osprey future releases published here. In the first instance, I have to acknowledge that all the 'Spade-work' for this story, was done by Rudi Richardson (TAROK) - for this I thank him for his help...

This story will cover ARMOR releases by Osprey Publishing for the months of July, August & September...

Why is this different from the usual release story? Well, firstly, the sheer quantity of new releases. Secondly, the Osprey Modelling Series is going to receive no less than FOUR new titles, a series, which is well covered in the review pages here on Armarama.com. Finally, the standard which Osprey is establishing in its publications is turning every new release into a major event. Enjoy!
