Paizo Publishing, LLC Announces New Product Line

Products Designed to Provide Useful Tools for GameMasters

Paizo Publishing, LLC, publisher of special-interest gaming and entertainment magazines DRAGON and DUNGEON is pleased to announce the launch of an exciting new product line. The GameMastery™ line—conceived by the editorial staff of DRAGON® and DUNGEON® magazines, and designed by some of the hottest names in the gaming industry—will help GameMasters provide a richer experience for their players while streamlining their setup and administration time.

“This new product line brings together the deep creative experience and talent of our editorial staff with our understanding of what it takes to shine as a GameMaster,” said Erik Mona, editor-in-chief of DRAGON and DUNGEON magazines.

Paizo’s management team—including Lisa Stevens, Bob Watts, and Keith Strohm—has over 75 years of experience in the industry, having held key leadership positions on such brands as Magic: The Gathering®, DUNGEONS & DRAGONS®, Warhammer 40,000®, Warhammer Fantasy®, and the Pokémon® trading card game, and will work directly with Paizo’s creative team to produce this new line of products.

The GameMastery line will debut in the summer of 2005 with Compleat Encounter: Dark Elf Sanctum ($14.95), which offers GameMasters everything they need to run a complete short encounter—including unique high-quality metal miniatures, four double-sided map cards that join together to form a gridded encounter map, and a complete encounter utilizing the Open Gaming License—all in one package.

“We are delighted to offer the GameMastery line as the first step in our new publishing venture and feel that this will further enhance our reputation as a top producer of quality roleplaying material,” said Lisa Stevens, CEO of Paizo Publishing.

A complete schedule for the GameMastery line will be released shortly after the GAMA Trade Show in Las Vegas, March 14-17.

Amazing Stories™ and Undefeated® Going on Hiatus

Paizo Publishing uses break to examine unique opportunities

Paizo Publishing, LLC, publisher of special-interest gaming and entertainment magazines DRAGON®, DUNGEON®, Undefeated and Amazing Stories, announced today that it will temporarily suspend publication of two of its titles—Amazing Stories and Undefeated. Despite respectable sales and increasing circulation, both periodicals face substantial market pressures and competition. Paizo intends to use the break to explore unique opportunities to revamp and reposition each magazine.

“We remain quite proud of these titles, and are presently considering a number of options that should provide a long and exciting future for both magazines,” says Lisa Stevens, co-owner and CEO of Paizo Publishing. “Both Amazing Stories and Undefeated are doing well in their respective niches; nevertheless, we believe that they could be even more successful. We certainly value the support our subscribers and regular readers have shown to Amazing Stories and Undefeated, and we hope that this hiatus will be brief.”

Amazing Stories #608 went on sale January 4, with Undefeated #10 scheduled to reach newsstands on January 18. These will be the last regular issues printed prior to the hiatus. As Paizo is still developing plans for the continued publication of both magazines, at this time subscriptions are not automatically being cancelled or transferred to other titles. Subscribers wishing to cancel their subscriptions can contact Paizo Publishing at customer.service@paizo.com. Plans are also underway for subscribers and visitors to the Paizo e-commerce store--http://paizo.com--to obtain an exclusive e-copy of Amazing Stories #609 in early February. Back issues of both magazines are also available at the http://paizo.com Web site.

DRAGON® is the official source of new rules, spells, artifacts and ideas for players of Dungeons & Dragons. DUNGEON® is the official source of D&D adventures.
