Re: New Osprey series
Yep indeed. Before they launched the series they held a vote in which registered Osprey forum members could vote on e.g. page count. Options were 48, 64 and 96 to keep within already established serial format. I voted for 96, but majority wanted 64.
But, then, the old Profile booklets had 12 or 16 pages in about the same size, and often delivered ecxellent content, while the Monogram Close-Up had 32 pages in a slightly bigger format.
A definite downside is that they are going with the same type of cutaway drawing as with the New Vanguard, i.e. with maybe 50 or less keyed items, when best Mike Badrocke drawn cutaways have over 200 keyed items.
