Ah yes, the githyanki incursion. I remember being quite impressed just by the Dragon side of that, so I’m very interested in finally getting to read the rest, over a decade later. The size of the issue seems a little less impressive this time though, as while it’s larger than any issue of Dragon, it’s no larger than any of the double issues of Dungeon we’ve been getting all last year. Let’s find out how long it’ll take to get through all the content in here and how contented I’ll be afterwards. Editorial: No matter how long they do this, every issue could be somebody’s first. So despite this being a massive milestone issue, this is just your basic  reminiscing on the staff’s first gaming experiences. It might not have been the very first time they played, but nearly every one of them has a key memory of the first time they realised this was awesome and they wanted to make it a big part of their life. Often the other people playing were crucial in this, as RPG’s are a social activity and a group who also takes this the right level of seriously is key to making it all click in people’s heads. If you haven’t had your ideal gaming experience, keep on looking for a better group rather than sticking with people you wound up playing with simply due to proximity. Nothing too surprising or outstanding here.Prison Mail: First letter wants more Spelljammer material and is also disappointed that they stopped reprinting the cover art sans blurbs inside. They are, just before the adventure it’s connected to. A third time would be redundant.Second is very pleased about the new adventure path, and just wishes the instalments were coming fast enough. They were planning on doing them every other issue but life got in the way. It is going to take a while to finish this and better late than done badly. Third is irritated by the recent rash of sexualised covers. Can’t you sell the magazine without them? Maybe, but they don’t want to. All that prudish code of conduct stuff is soooo 90’s.Fourth is another letter irritated by the whole dual magazine thing. Those just keep on coming, huh. Finally, someone very pleased by the big Greyhawk article in issue 98. The Dragon LG section never did those and it’s nice to see them stretch themselves again.Nodwick can’t keep an orc in a 10x10 room alive long enough to get through the exposition before the others kill it. If it weren’t for fast breeding rates they’d be an extinct species long ago.</blockquote>
