One of my favourites is Peter Ball & Ryan Nock's "The Adventurer's Guide to Surviving Anything". At the moment, this is the only regular column in the magazine. Each issue, the column will deal with two or three specific situations, presenting rules for that situation and tactics which can be utilised. Using this column, you should be able to stage some set-piece battles which rival anything in a Bond film"
