A few days ago I offered up an idea about forming a new magazine dedicated to Dungeons & Dragons or PnP RPGs in general; especially now that DRAGON and DUNGEON magazine are out of print and relegated to a purely electronic format. Well, today Jeff Rient @ Jeff's Gameblog pointed out that he recently received Issue #2 of Fight On!, a new RPG gaming magazine published via LuLu.com. This is awesome! Now I don't have to do this myself because the good folks over at Fight On! are keeping the tradition of a printed journal alive in the RPG community. Each issue seems to be "system neutral", so regardless of what system you use to game (DND, Pathfinder, etc) its going to serve as a nice accessory. I'm going to pick them up and (probably) offer a review once I get them. In the meantime, it is money well spent in support of "the little guys" of gaming.
Issue #1 is 30 pages, 8.5" x 11", saddle-stitch binding, black and white interior ink. ($6)
Issue #2 is 88 pages, 8.5" x 11", saddle-stitch binding, black and white interior ink ($7.50)
118 pages of pure geek - well worth the 13.50 bucks IMHO
If you haven't tried it, you should also check out Kobold Quarterly. It's up to issue #5, and has a great old-style Dragon vibe. It's available in print and PDF, and has gone a lone way towards making my mailbox happy now that Dragon's gone.
