Magazines

Today I discovered why Ars fan magazines don't use the zine format that is cheaper to post.

You can't fit the stat blocks on one page

I'm mocking up a magazine using Open License dragons to see what is involved. It'll be a freebie if it is ever live, because there's no new content, just the twenty or so dragons in the OL material and some stock art.

I'm mentioning this because of one of you has had the same idea and put money/effort in, I can do the same test with sprites or dryads or elementals, so just tell me and I can switch to something else.

Interesting, Can I assume by “post” you mean “mail” or Post online? Besides IIRC only early zines were distributed old school, the rest were digital letter or A4 size pages.

TLDR; for me No, please do it.

Was considering doing this as a reference to another body of work. So, anything you produce could be used as a supporting document.

I’m basically planning to expand on the ArM Dragons within a high fantasy setting, so I’m adding to the baseline in a way, and formalizing campaign notes and filling in hand waving.
