Soooo... any time table on this issue? :D I'm sure it's soon-ish.
Good question! I'll see if the Overlord knows.
Ooh! I wasn't expecting it to be that soon! The excitement!
Nice! Can't wait.
I was going to ask about what work Marc or Ryan did on this issue, if any, but I guess half of that question is answered now. :)
So, October 29th? Is that the Kobolds' goal, or just the lamias' goal? ;)
Cover image! ...That's hot.
Mechuitl, Cannibal Demon Lord, and ecology of dragonkin. Are these articles still the magazine?
All these questions and more answered after this commercial break!
please have flumphs, please have flumphs, please have flumphs...
Oh well, should still be good!
Mechuitl, Cannibal Demon Lord, and ecology of dragonkin. Are these articles still the magazine?
I certainly want you to preorder the issue, so I'll spill some beans of the items listed on the Devil/Demon issue's cover).
Mechuiti (the Cannibal Demon) and his demon apes and the cannibal behtu are certainly in the issue--they are somewhat of a preview of Journeys to the West material, and Mechuiti's island is described in the [i[Pirates of the Western Ocean[/i] supplement for Journeys. Wes Schneider has a great devil article in this issue you won't want to miss (he had one in the previous issue, as well), and Adam Daigle has a wonderful Pathfinder piece in the issue. We've got Ed Greenwood with an article about a book of Asmodeus. I've added some poisons and magical inks to Midgard from Friula (one of my favorite areas of the setting). Marc Radle has an article on the lamia. Steve Winter talks about terrifying your players.
We've got first articles from Morgan Boehringer and Matt Blackie on new archetypes: the gauntlet witch and a weapon-specialist monk. And, there's a look at the new Earthdawn for Pathfinder. I'm forgetting some stuff for sure.
It's really a jam-packed issue of goodies, and I absolutely loved working on it. Preorder a good jolt of evil for your campaign today!

Ha ha! Even better, Liz! Thanks. :)
WOOT!!!
I got my email to download the PDF of issue 23. That means hard copy is enroute.
It's an archetype, I think.
Silverhair, I was curious about the Gauntlet Witch. Is is a witch archetype or a regular 20 level class? Could you let me know. Thanks.
It is an archetype.

Haha! Finally, the kobolds wrangled the elusive clockwork stalker! PCs- start trembling...

Wow, the Simplified Sundering article for PFRPG is a great trick!
I’ve already printed that sucker out and put it in my DM notebook.
E D I T - That's REALLY embarrassing and strange - after I submitted that I went to the top of the page and noticed that I wrote the article. Which, I actually didn't. My name is attached to it but I actually didn't write it - someone named R.C. Higgins did. Might wanna correct that! :-)
Like Ice Cream Gninja!
As Wolfgang has said before he cannot print what is not submitted. You want 4E articles, write one.
This website might explain the missing 4e content.

Hey, where did the 4E content go? My DM pal isn't going to be happy; first there's no new 4E books at all and now KQ doesn't even have one article on it. I love the magazine because I'm a Pathfinder person myself, so keep up the good work there!
If your friend wants to see 4e material in KQ, he needs to either submit it or get others to submit it. If no one writes it, the Kobolds can't publish it, simple as that.

It's true, the D&D Next playtest has sucked a LOT of the life out of 4E submissions. However, tell your DM about this 4E release with intro by Rob Heinsoo and he might be happier.
Wow, lots of articles. How many pages does the typical KQ have on average? Lots ads in them?
I have issues that run from 60 to 90 pages. It mainly depends on the number and length of the articles that are submitted for publishing. If you want an average then I think in the 70-80 page range would fit.
Understand I am a subscriber not an employee nor am I affiliated with Kobold Press in any way.
Unless the publisher is independently wealthy you are going to find ads in any magazine. I don't sense that KQ has an unreasonable number of ads.
Wolfgang could answer your questions more accurately as he is the Kobold-in-Chief.
Yeah, I have no issue with ads. I was just wondering how many pages of content you had. I'm impressed by the number of articles. Seems like there are more articles than in the old printed Dragon mag.
Very tempting. Appropriate for an issue about demons and devils. :)
It's delicious. You should really give it a try.
Great issue!

I agree. Not only do I not mind the ads, I typically read them all.
It's been said before but back in the pre-internet days of Dragon and Dungeon that was a key way to learn about new products. They're not selling me toasters, they're typically advertising the very types of things I'd be interested in as a KQ reader.
Some of the ad art is really high quality - it's almost like bonus content. Well maybe that's pushing it, but I expect a healthy industry magazine to carry at least some ads for me to peruse.
I agree, I like the ads to. Liked them in the print D + D mags too. I guess, tho, that if the same ad is in there time after time they get a bit annoying. But if the advertisers keep updating their ads, I'll keep looking.
