Excellent, Jans! Thanks for the link. I dig your setup and hope to someday transform my basement into a similar "retreat" for gaming. Unless I can find a good (cheap) used projector, I may have to forego the overhead projection system. Wonder if there's a different way to do it? Very large LCD monitor turned face up beneath a glass tabeltop? You wouldn't get the same breadth, but it might be cheaper and add to a claustrophobic feel. Just brainstorming...

Rauol,

Then you should subscribe :)

My two cents, otherwise:
- Logo is fine and new cover designs lets artwork breathe.
- None of the cartoons float my boat. I like the graphic quality of DOWNER, but I think it's storyline is a bit esoteric. Could care less about the characters, and that's what it's all about, right? Characters?
- I spent too much time looking for that stupid reader survey too. Don't run an ad for something if it isn't available yet.

Player handouts for sure. Remember TOMB OF HORRORS? Nothing quite like saying to your players, "You enter a vaulted chamber dripping with a strange, phosphorescent green liquescence. Your footsteps echo on the curiously dust-free stone floor as you approach a scrolled marble sarcophagus decorated with scorpion tails..." and then whip out the artist's rendering of that sarcophagus. Players eat that stuff up with a spoon.

So, why not offer a PDF of NPC "headshots" and memorable location artwork? A little more work for DUNGEON, for sure, but invaluable to the readership :)
