My dilemma.....

[Coniglius]

The slipcover allows AVP to have standard black boxes and slip covers in its inventory. This is less inventory (and less bulky) than having an appropriate level of the boxes for each of the games in print. Far less costly too so it's a decision based on economics.

The Pusan Perimeter are gorgeous but mine were a bit slippery when stacked high. My Burning Tigers were as gorgeous (a little thinner and a different finish) but not slippery.

I get it. I figured it was a cost savings measure. Now if he can come up with a way to make the divisional downloads a bit easier on my wallet, I'll be thrilled!!!

Come to think of it, my second copy of Eastern Front is also in a slip cover. It is the only other title that I own that has the slip cover; all others are the printed boxes. It reminds me somewhat of the older Avalon Hill titles that had the slip case in addition to the two cardboard box halves.
