[QUOTE="Gundark, post: 3148862, member: 6148"] I usually don't buy Dragon magazine. Dungeon Magazine sure, I love these new APs. The Dragon Mags that i have been seeing are full of new stuf, new Prcs, new races, new spells, feats, etc. Most of this stuff is something I'd rather pass up on. I was thinking, what if Dragon had an article (or devoted a section of the magazine) to a setting that they came up with? The articles could run for a year (kinda like the adventure paths do). For example article one would give an overview of the setting and history. #2 could talk about organizations, power structures. Issue 3 could be about a particular geographical part of the setting, issue 4 a mini monster maual of the setting... and so on and so forth. Even if you didn't like the setting in particular there is a wealth of info to mine for whatever setting your playing in. I know that this has been done before to an extent (I'm thinking Dark sun, Mystara) These mini setting are detailed enough to give an idea what's going on but leave enough up to the DM to fill in. What do you think? Something like this would get me buying Dragon. This also would be a great opportunity to present less traditional settings. [/QUOTE]
