Dark Sun in Dragon magazine

Jürgen Hubert · Feb 10, 2004

I am normally uninterested in Dragon magazine. However, I heard that they will soon publish a D&D3.5 conversion for Dark Sun, which does interest me a lot.

In which issues are these going to be, and what will they cover (if anyone knows)?

It's #319, as I recall. Two months hence.

Dungeon/Polyhedron will also feature Dark Sun content that month.

As I understand it, they are trying to cover...everything. Rules, setting, and an adventure or two.

I wonder how they'll tweak the classic setting, if at all...

Where's my Dungeon/Polyhedron magazine with the Dark*Matter d20 Modern mini-game in it?

Ah! Here it is.

Coming in May!

Dark Sun Player's Guide - Dragon #319
Dark Sun DM Guide & Adventure - Dungeon/Polyhedron #110

I don't know about you guys, but if Paizo is going to publish only 4 mini-games a year, they might as well use this format.

that is pretty groovy! I was a big fan of the fluff of Dark Sun, and I even ran a few games. I liked the grittiness of it all and the fact that it hurts to cast magic. I normally don't pick up Dungeon but I will for that issue!

Depends on the minigame. Dragon should probably remain D&D.

If they'd like to give us one or two D&D campaigns / minigames per year...sign me up.

Hell, when they do the Player's Guide to the Planes or whatever it's called, it would be a perfect chance to do Planescape...put the PC stuff in Poly, the setting stuff in Dragon, and some adventures in Dungeon.

[But only if it's all DiTerzelli art.]

Does DS actually count as one of the mini-games for the year? Erik you reading this?

Mach2.5 · Feb 14, 2004

Seeing as how its going to cover in all three magazines, I would think it is fairly safe to assume it counts.

I wonder if the mechanic used for defiling and preserving will be based on Unearthed Arcana's recharge mechanic?

DragonLancer · Feb 14, 2004

I had read that someone was looking to get the rights to publish 3.5 Dark Sun. Has that fallen through now? I really hope not.

Isn't this move by Paizo a bit of a slap to the face of the Athas.org folks?
