You have to start somewhere, and what better place then the beginning.  The first issue The Strategic Review clocked in at a mere 6 pages.  Despite the small size and the large amount of space allocated to war-gaming, there is a nice amount of stuff of high interest to players  of Dungeons & Dragons.
Under the Creature Feature tag, we are introduced to the iconic D&D adversary: The Mind Flayer.  Pretty cool, huh?  Your Saving Throw is based upon distance and the defenders intelligence.  Watch yourself, you may just get Mind Blasted ;)
Two and a half pages are devoted to EGG's Solo Dungeon Adventure Charts.  These seem to be the same chart (or very similar) to the ones I enjoyed in the 1e DMG.  They were a fun way to randomly design a dungeon and a less fun way to try to solo D&D.  Of note is these charts are copyright EGG, not Tactical Studies Rules.
One of the items advertised by TSR on the last page is 3 sets of prints (5 prints per set) of art from the original boxed D&D set.  I don't think I've heard of these before, let seen any for sale.  Anyone have any further info on these?
