It is singularly the best money a DM can spend these days. Dragon is something I would recommend if you have even more cash lying on hand, but I wouldn't call it a necessity for anyone. Dungeon has tons of useful stuff for DMs. Three adventures every issue never hurts a DM (especially one who has little problem adapting, and it isn't hard). Plus, I have found the articles extremely helpful to developing my DM style and making my game better. Dungeoncraft is always the first article I turn to. The only really valuable stuff in Dragon magazine are retro articles (for those old grognards), comics, and flavor stuff that fleshes out other settings (likely something you won't get much benefit out of if you are looking to run Ptolus). The reviews of upcoming products are nice, but honestly, the best stuff from Dragon ALWAYS ends up being published in WotC books (and it gets refined and balanced in the process). Dragon is the kind of magazine I read once and be done with it. Dungeon is something I can keep coming back to for helpful hints.</p></blockquote><p></p>
