My first issue was the april fool's issue from I believe 01. Back when 3.0 was still all smooth and new. My oldest issue was from the mid eighties and I believe it was the issue with Kappa. I don't have the magazines on me or I would be a lot more specific.
I am really gonna miss this magazine.


Personally, I am not pissed in any way, nor am I depressed. It's more like, hurt or dissapointment. I have seen the material that wizards has online and I am not impressed entirely with it. Occasionally, a shocker does come around and I am pleased with it. I am not a fan of eye strain from reading a computer screen though. I do agree that the online idea is a poor decision.
There is nothing more enjoyable to me than sitting down after I finish a huge paper or a final exam than reading an issue of Dragon or Dungeon. The hard copy is something I can hold in my hand. Something that I don't have to worry about my "hard drive eating". The writers at Paizo are accomplished and I am very pleased with the direction of the magazine over the last few years.

To sum my feelings up , Dungeons and Dragons has survived through many trying issues over the last three decades;if my faith is in the right place another company may pick up where the last one left off. For example TSR to Wizards. If I could create a graph, it would involve A "high" of where wizards recieved the franchize and a "low" of where WOTC decided to end Dragon.
I haven't decided if I am getting back issues or pathfinder as of yet, but I am excited for the final issues of both dragon and dungeons and I know that we will not be displeased. I am anticipating the new direction as a dissapoinment more often than not can lead to great amounts of excitement.

Unfortunatlely, my issue has not arrived yet either!
Thanks!


I have read nearly every major trilogy in the Dragonlance series over the last six years or so and I honestly believe that Kender have really had a part in my appreciation for the series!


I love Clerics for a few reasons. In the early levels they can fight well and in the epic levels, heal is a REALLY nice spell to have on hand.
