AT-43 — Cog Army Book Preview
Rackham, in Cry Havoc Online #111, provided three pages from the upcoming Cog Army Book. The pages show the platoon patterns, heroes, and company equipment.
The Rackham website also has another four-page excerpt that covers the A-Volution troops. Those are the big size three Cog troops in exosuits.

AT-43 Tactics — Review
Rackham recently released AT-43 Tactics: Tactical RPG. Tactics’ physical appearance is typical of the other AT-43 books and is a 64-page, 8 1/2″x11″, soft cover, full-color book. It also includes a page of perforated heavy cardstock counters. Instead of including cards, as some other AT-43 expansions have done, Rackham this time simply included a page with the card art that you will need to photocopy and cut out. Considering none of the cards are actually used as cards in this game but as map overlays (doors and objectives) this works out just fine. Read the rest of this entry »

AT-43 for Warhammer 40K Players
I stumbled upon a nice comparison of AT-43 vs WH40K. In this case it is not a ‘this is better than that comparison’ but a literal comparison of the various aspects of each game with the other. I think this is helpful for players of either game to see how situations are handled in the other ruleset. The author even included some interesting photographs.
