I have been trying to get one. It is clearly no Battushig (much less the forthcoming 2nd edition!), but seems more like an improved Herfurth. Still, seems interesting.

From what I know:

As an "only" book? No. (The "only" still = Battushig.)

As a second book (if German is not a problem)? Maybe. Haven't seen it yet.

Others?

Here is a sample page from the book. I have to go an see the guy to collect some other awards I've ordered sometime next week. If anyone would like a copy of this book, let me know and I'll pick up a few copies while I'm there an post them out.

Fairly much like Herfurth in layout and size, but all in colour and covers badges, medals, awards, titles etc. 132 pages.

Kind Regards,
Shane Cook.

Shane,

Thanks for posting the scan. Does it cover variations?

Alexei

From what I have seen, no, NOT in any serious way. Try the GMIC sub-forum or Battushig's initial or forthcoming 2nd edition (where I'll make sure they appear). By the time the 2nd edition appears, information from the archives will be ingegrated, so we may even sort out the Polar Star (sounds of insane laughter, receeding off into the far Mongol distance, . . . )

Figues ... Thanks.

Alexei

P.S. GMIC takes forever to load on my computer, so I can't use it.
