Looks like a good lineup. How close are you to being ready to launch? Are you just waiting till you've got 3 articles and an adventure per publication, or do you want to have a backlog of articles already finished?

We're building up a back catalog of material before we're ready to launch. EN5ider hopes to have at least two issues worth of material before we go live.

Best of luck everyone. Given the high quality of much of the discourse on this site, I'm expecting great things from all of you!

... no pressure.

The articles and adventures looked interesting. I still haven't quite gotten the pricing structure, but suspect it will be clearer when this goes live.

I really hope this becomes succesful, so good luck!

The pricing structure is "pay what you want". It's completely up to you. $1 per article? $1000 per article? Whatever you decide to pay!

This looks really interesting- looking forward to reading the article about creating good puzzles, I often struggle with those.

Sounds great. Could you please list what level characters the adventures support?

Looks good. I am sure I will subscribe at some point.

The issue is of course sustainability. Kobold Quarterly had a good run, but couldn't last. Gygax Magazine seems to have only done 4 issues. And those both had strong content and some buzz.

And of course there was ENWorld's previous attempt at a game magazine...I still have my copy of the one issue somewhere.
