[QUOTE="RodneyThompson, post: 750173, member: 3594"] I, of course, really like the Polyhedron side of the magazine and wish it was separate from Dungeon. I don't use canned adventures in any of my games. Not out of any sort of arrogance, but because I feel like I've cheated my players if I don't have to put forth the effort to design an adventure that they have to put into playing it. Also, the Poly stuff is fascinating to me. I may never use half of the stuff, but it's still an entertaining read. I may be a rare breed of gamer for this, but I often buy gaming and RPG books that I may never use because I find them entertaining. For example, on the whole I don't like White Wolf WoD stuff. However, I love a lot of the Werewolf backstory. Even though I have never played the game and probably never will, I've bought a lot of the books for the Werewolf line because I find them interesting. Poly is a variety pack to Dungeon's D&D combo meal. I read the Dungeon side (and love the maps!) but I would not buy it if it were not for Polyhedron. Oh, and I've got two articles in the next issue of Polyhedron, so I see it as a much more viable outlet than the D&D material where it often seems like it's hard to come up with something that hasn't already been done to death.
