This isn't an obituary. Angus Ryall is not dead; as far as I know. So what's it for? Well, writing about Games Workshop made me go back and read again Angus Ryall's short lived Front Line column in CRASH and I think it's great and contains some of CRASH's best writing about games (and also, frequently, not about games). I just want to talk about it. Sorry, this is one for me.

any stories about those who returned. The dungeon gates open in front of
you. Only the very brave or the very foolhardy would risk the journey
you are about to undertake. Which are you?
