As a small curiosity without being really an impactful publication in the history of DnD, after the end of The Strategic Review, as the publication split into the Fantasy themed The Dragon and the historical miniature wargaming Little Wars, TSR published The Strategic Preview briefly, for only three issues.

This issue starts with “number 3” because it is following on from The Strategic Review which finished with Vol. II #2, earlier in the year. This is meant to be a little A4 page printed on both sides, although I only have access to the front page of the three issues, so I can’t talk about what is on the back, although I imagine it has coupons for TSR products (according to the text in the front).

In this short page they announce the arrival of this publication and also the Eldritch Wizardry supplement. This was mainly the function of Strategic Preview, to keep people abreast of new releases, particularly as these would be included in the subscription packages for The Dragon and Little Wars, keeping each subscriber aware of releases that were perhaps being discussed in the other magazine.
