[QUOTE="Malakye, post: 377241, member: 982"] Maybe I'm in the minority here, but like I said before, I like the themed issues. For example, I don't have the ELH and I'm not sure I'll be getting it for quite a while but I still liked the issue with all the Epic level material because when/if I do get the ELH, I'll know exactly which issue I need to look at to get more material for it. I am especially bewildered by comments that things should be spread out over the year for things like dwarves, elves etc. I would much rather look at one issue to get it all than have to peruse thru 12 to get each little bit. That is just a waste of my time. I love the comics, I'm dissapointed that they have been reduced but I'll get over it. I don't care for the articles on mini's unless it is about painting them or something like that. I could care less about Chainmail, myself. I don't really care to see reviews. Besides comics, I want the material to cover DnD as much as possible. I'm not sure about the short stories. I have absolutely loved some of them, Garden of Souls by Richard Lee Byers in issue 283 being my favorite, but the rest are either ok or bad. I play Forgotten Realms so the more FR stuff the better. I could care less about the Greyhawk stuff. Keep all the FR stuff you have now and if you could, give us more. :D I think a balance between FR and GH is good over all though. I love Mr. Gygax's Up on a Soapbox, never get rid of it. I wouldn't mind less of the Scale Mail. You could maybe print a letter or two but I think most feedback/discussion could be had on the message boards and putting it in the mag is redundant and a waste of space(gaming material). I don't really care for Silicon Sorcery, I have never found anything useful in it. I like any articles about running DnD or playing DnD better. I think a short article each issue or a longer one every other issue would probably be enough. I like the Sage advice but it may be better as something on the web. The problem I have with Sage Advice is that I can't always remember what issue to look at when I need something. If it was on the web, it would be easy for me to save it and organize it and then print it out if need be. Most of all, I like STUFF: prestige classes, feats, items, spells, creatures, rules that aren't covered by core books such as vehicle combat, underwater combat etc, skills/new skill uses, character themes/combos by using multiclassing/feats/skills etc. As long as Dragon stays focused on DnD material that I can use in my campaign (or future campaigns) I will be happy.
