Fourth Season is a gen 220-page anthology of fiction and resources.
From the distributor, "Color cover. The Rats are at it again, with some excerpts from the memories of a real North African campaign veteran."
The submission request said that it was looking for material that was "grittier and more realistic than usually seen onscreen."
From the zine: "We didn't create these people. We only borrowed them for a little while and now return them to their original creator, Tom Gries."
