Gear Up 5 is here, and so is a monster issue of miniature-hobby-related articles, from the Golden Gear entries, to Show Me Your Colors, to Terra Nova Terraformer, and introducing Dream Pod 9 Studio Masterclass. And these are just some of the new developments on the hobby side of Heavy Gear Blitz.
We've also got an artist interview with designer and 3D modeller David Tauzia, who contributed to the cover of Perfect Storm and modeled the Lancier, Chargeur, and Hussar. It's also got yet another installment of Prime Solutions, by Jason Dickerson and drawn by Mariko Shimamoto.
Gerrit Kitts' MILICIA spotlight article continues in this issue with suggested squad layouts, some stories on life in the AST by Sean Callaway, and some MILICIA uniform studies.
We know Arena players are dying to be able to field NuCoal units in their games, so we've also included rules for that in this issue. But we know what you've really been waiting for since the release of Perfect Storm NuCoal Field Guide, the BETA of the revised Field Guide Threat Values for the North, South, PRDF, Leagueless, Black Talon, Caprice, CEF, Utopia, and Eden.
