[QUOTE="Kepli Sire, post: 4089350, member: 36815"] Hey guys, I saw this review of Dragon Roots issue Zero from this site: [url]http://www.dundjinni.com/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=9986&PN=1&TPN=3[/url] reprinted here: [I]Taking the Game Back to its Roots. Well I have given issue #0 a good read and...... a very big smile was on my face at the end. It reminded me of the early Dragon magazines, when it was just gamers discussing the game they loved. Excellent bit on O-level characters and revisited some old ground (Alignments and Social Classes) but the best bit, well apart from the 'Letters to the Editor', was the humor.....sometimes I wonder when did D&D became so serious (the later Dragon mags spring to mind)? Oh....and on the subject of should the magazine embrace 4e......well I am still playing the first addition AD&D. For me its not the stats that concern me, its the ideas. I like a magazine that you can take a few ideas away and use in your game....and this magazine did not disappoint me. Defiantly a thumbs-up from me....are you sure you don't do life-time subscriptions? Gary Cole Winchester, United Kingdom[/I] If that isn't a ringing endorsement I don't know what is. I just received my own issue today and unfortunately my wife found it first :( Her laughter and smiling face makes the waiting all the harder LOL Of course she is also proud to see my name in a magazine and I must admit, so am I ;) Mark Manders Webmaster at Dundjinni.com and creator of the maps in the Dragon Roots magazine.
