No doubt you have noticed that this issue of The Grenadier is somewhat later than usual. This is intentional, and mainly stems from the fact that Origins is being held a month early this year. We wanted to mail an issue right before Origins, so we had to delay printing this issue until now. The next issue, number 7, will be somewhat earlier than usual; look for it this August. By the October issue, we'll be back on our usual track.

We have good news and bad news regarding future issues of The Grenadier. The good news is that, effective with number 7, the size of the magazine will increase by 50%, to 48 pages. The bad news, of course, is that we'll have to raise over-the-counter and subscription prices as well. This price hike, to $7.00 for one year/four issues, $2 for single copies, will take effect as of August 1st; until then, you can subscribe at the old prices. Even at the higher price, we still think the Grenadier is a pretty good deal.
