Jardine crawled out of his lifeboat¸ his head still reeling from the impact of the landing. "Guess I better check out this vacation paradise¸" he said aloud. It is the start of 1983 and Nexus #4 has just been released. It focuses on the "The Savage Jungle" which combines Ultra Warrior and Survival to create a new solitaire game. Of course there is the Star Fleet Universe section. This issue has SSDs of Q-ships and provides a scenario to fly them in. Richard Kerr also lets people know how how to assemble their Kzinti ships. There is an article with modifications for Starfire and a piece of fiction set in that universe. You'll find reviews of Berserker¸ "recent" American Civil War games¸ Norway 1940¸ Soldier King¸ Cradle of Civilization¸ Traitor¸ and Axis and Allies. There is also a look at the "new" Hayden Software line of games for the Apple II+. Fitting in with the opening article¸ the closing article focuses on solitaire gaming.
