A Magazine for D20 Modern?

[Methuslah]

Some of you will know of ‘Concept Horizons’, a magazine that I am producing that is intended to cover general roleplaying. The interesting thing is that it seems to be evolving into a magazine supporting D20 Modern – the articles that are coming in meet with this. As to my knowledge there isn’t a magazine covering D20 Modern exclusively at the moment, what are people’s opinions of this. Would such a magazine be welcome? (As with Almanac, I would try to stick to idea-based pieces in the majority, but featuring rules-based pieces where appropriate).

We are in the process of finishing off the first issue of a d20 Modern Fanzine 'Modern Living'. We have a mixture of articles, for more info see http://www.wirepaladin.co.uk/viewforum.php?f=21

Forgot to mention - if anyone is interested in contributing to Concept Horizons, more details avaliable on my website. Pay is 2 cents a word.

No, not exclusively. Even the Dungeon flipside, Polyhedron supports d20 Modern by providing mini-games and the occasional maps but it tends to cover d20 in general.

There are other third-party magazine like Campaign and Gaming Frontier (arguably an expensive magazine at $20 per issue) that also covers d20 in general.

Yours would be the first to do "d20 Modern only."

Would such a magazine be welcome? (As with Almanac, I would try to stick to idea-based pieces in the majority, but featuring rules-based pieces where appropriate).

If you can keep the price down to $6 or less per issue, then yes. Just try to circulate at least 6 issues per year (bimonthly), although monthly circulation is preferred.

Concept Horizons will cost $2.50 (for about twenty pages of material), sold in PDF form through RPGNow. It will be coming monthly, starting in September.

Yes, I would love a d20 Modern magazine.

However, I have no interest at all in a PDF-Only version. Magazines are something I throw in my magazine rack or suitcase and read at leisure. I don't want to sit in front of my computer, or even my laptop, to read one.

My personal preference is print, too.
