First Post
I find it hard to keep track of the new material in Dragon every month, and since my players hardly glance at those files, they miss out on a lot of good stuff. For me, I feel a bit of an obligation to tell the would-be warlord that there are some decent options for him if he wants to look at them. I fixed this, for myself, by indexing the articles a bit.

Now this is a work in progress, and any suggestions are very welcome here. I did it in an hours time, so something might be miscategorized or even skipped; a page or issue number might even be wrong.

I'm posting it here in case someone else shares my particular concerns, because I like to be helped and helpful too ;).

Oh, and of further note, I have considered trying to learn excel so I can make a multi-categorized spreadsheet for this (with dungeon) that indexes new monsters, items, and other content. That one could be a good while, since I don't have the program and am very short of time as of late. I'll keep interested parties updated here, should I get to do that.

I have started something similar (see my sig) it is up-to-date with the free stuff and I will update from next week again when I get a bit more free time.

well that's cool, I can just throw mine out since you've saved me the work. I'll have to get excel tho, or the open office version.

Do you have the article list in your file? I find it useful for a quick glance.

From next month I will go through the magazines one by one again and double check page numbers and such, add articles names and an article index.

If my laziness doesn't strike too badly I will think about adding links from the article index to the seperate breakdowns.
