Dragon Crunch Index

Hi,

For my own purposes I have put together a list of feats, magic items, monsters, paragon paths, epic destinies, powers, races & classes in the dragon magazines. So far I have gone through issues 364 and 365. I haven't noticed any similar projects on the forum so I thought I would share what I ahve so far. The plan is to keep the lists updated on a monthly basis when the compilation pdf is available.

PLease let me know if I have left anything out and if there are any errors.

Kouk at the Gleemax forums has been doing a similar project for the Dungeon E-Magazines . You can find his thread here:

The Hidden Gems of Dungeon e-Magazine - Wizards Community

I have also added monster keywords at his suggestion.

28 December
Updated to include the Dragon Magazines up to 371, Dragon 372 will be added on the weekend, after the compilation goes live on Friday.

I have left the file with the pre-subscription info up for those that are interested.

Interesting, indexes like this one are always appreciated and a huge time-saver. Thanks

On a completely off-topic comment: "Dragon Crunch" sounds like the breakfast cereal of choice for your typical D&Der. At least it would be mine

Kouk over on Gleemax does something similar, just with stuff from eDungeon.

The Hidden Gems of Dungeon e-Magazine

Maybe it can be of use, to compile from both?

I am checking with him now, as it will be a bit redundant for two serperate people to do the same work, that and I am naturally lazy .

If you're doing Dragon and he's doing Dungeon, that sounds like two complementary projects to me, not something where you need to worry about stepping on each other's toes.

Thanks to both of you for doing this, by the way.

This is a useful project. Thanks.
I would say this is the sort of thing worth a sticky.

This'd be nice in the Wiki. Then anyone could contribute to maintaining it.

very minor nitpick. The last three items are from Dungeon and it is spelled Dunfeon in the spreadsheet.

Things that happen when you update at 2 in the morning

I'll fix that with the next update, hopefully the compiled magazines will be online later today . . . .

Wow. I've looked at it all, but I didn't think that it was that much stuff. Crazy.
Really, though, how much of that is preview stuff? If you just take into account the brand new stuff that won't be out in a book, what do you come up with? I'm sure a smaller list, but still full of awesome.

As far as I can see, the majority is written spefically to appear in the Dragon Magazine. The only exceptions are the Warforged and Artificer which will appear in Eberron Players Guide.

It certainly puts to bed any notions of "lack of content" in eFormat Dragon and Dungeon magazines! There's some cool stuff in there, not to mention some great fluff!

Now if only they'd hire more (or better) editors...

The end of the free stuff

Seeing as the freebies are ending tomorrow , here is a list of what has been released in the free Dragon and Dungeon Magazines.

204 Monsters and NPCs
93 Magical Items and Artifacts
56 Powers
3 Races
2 Play Test Classes
41 Feats
8 Paragon Paths
6 Epic Destinies
34 Rituals
48 Backgrounds
2 Altered attacks
2 Diseases
1 Monster Ability
15 Hazards
27 Skill Challenges
16 Terrain Features
23 Traps
2 Vehicles

And that is just the crunch, there are some awesome fluff articles in Dragon as well as some very interesting encounters in the Dungeon Magazine.

Unfortunately for my credit card WOTC has rolled a crit for their Charisma attack vs my will , can't wait to see what the Gladiator articles look like
