Well, since it's so nice that its in english now ima postan some pics

It's really nice to be able to see what the designers were thinking with all their notes, a good portion of its relevant to character design and even the Technology and Weapons thread.

More legible/higher rez available at the album since im too dumb to get the full image...

you can also compare it to the japanese version there, they only difference is language i tihnk :P

Covers of the japanese(w/o Dustcover) and english compared. The Ubon release doesnt come with a seperate dust cover, instead...

Spoiler for Quite a number of Pics:

Thats it for this preview i tihnk... the UDON paper is just a bit thinner than the jpn one, but thats about it, quality is still gorgeous. I like the dust cover more...it doesnt have that slipping feeling of a detachable one... Large format, 400 pages full colour... unique game...looks great, and at last check i can see it for sub 30$ at some locations...

The illustration used takes up more space since its enlarged or zoomed in or w.e b/c this way it actually fits on the page more by wrapping around. I actually forgot to take a picture of the full outer cover, but even though its enlarged nothing has been omitted. Some more realistic and less cheesy deaths T_T, I would've prefered these ones as the reflected the brutality more... Tank discussion begins: THEY KNOW STUFFS! unless you were in a late version of T34s and other tanks with the same armour value all-around... flawed when you consider that theres a limited amount of armour you can have on a tank... BT series were pretty unique... Edy PVC figures? Don't think i saw those... Jerry tank love I think someone requested this awhile ago in Tech/Weaps... Guns: Not guns: yea i took pics all out of order...meh... This one might hurt your head if you try too hard to read it... The interview was really cool too, lots of stuff discussed, uhh chocie of vehicles, locations, SRPG vs. FPS/TPS and why...mascot choices, death choices, etc. Thats it for this preview i tihnk... the UDON paper is just a bit thinner than the jpn one, but thats about it, quality is still gorgeous.
