Thanks to one or two matters over which I have very little control, progress on the second edition of the Compendium is not going as quickly as I had hoped. My self-imposed deadline was Easter, but some of the articles have yet to be finished and proofread, and now that I have a fortnight of jury service to look forward to, I’m unsure just how much time I will have to devote to working on the book.

Despite this delay, progress is being made to complete the next Compendium, and from what I have seen, it is going to be a very interesting issue, with lots of ideas for how to use the rules (in all their different iterations) for fighting campaigns.

In the interim – and to whet the appetites of potential readers – here is a copy of one of the campaign maps that I hope to include in the Compendium:

It is based on the map from RISK: EDITION NAPOLEON, which was published exclusively in France by Tilsit – under license from Hasbro – in the 1990s as a numbered edition of 10,000 copies.
