COuldnt agree more Pug! Great layout, format and adventures continue to be great. I for one and happy with the ending of Polyhedron. I just simply wasnt using the content in Dungeon for anything but DnD. The closing article by Wil Wheaton was also a nice touch that made the magazine even better. Thanks for the hard work here.


Although I didn't use much in the Polyhedron section, I can't say I'm as happy as some of it's demise. It did have some interesting ideas and it was the only wildely available source for alternative d20 material. Furthermore, it was the only source of d20 Modern material. It is sad that that has gone the way of the dodo.

On the other hand, the new content and editorial policy for Dungeon is very exciting. I think that the guys have done an excellent job. My only negative comment would be with the font choice for the Dungeon title. It leaves me cold and has too much of a retro look for my taste. I'm nitpicking here, I know...

Now, if only there was such a good quality publication for GM of d20 Modern/Future and other d20 products. One can only hope...

I echo this statement. The new Dungeon is great. You could not have done it much better in my opinion.

I really enjoy the new format. I love the additional articles, adding stuff for dungeon masters is something that should have been done a long time ago. i've always enjoyed Dungeon magazine but now it will be more than a magazine with a bunch of mini-adventures,I really want it to become a resource for DM's. and just to let you know, I dont even play 3E, i'm one one of those 2nd edition die-hards, but I appreciate a good adventure and a good article no-matter what rules system is used. I also enjoyed the Wil save column, it was nice and very topical, as I will be starting a new campaign in a matter of weeks, and my son will be playing for the first time as well. so all around high marks! keep up the good work folks.

I love the new format as well (especially the three adventures of low, middle and high level) but I'm not crazy about the 3-column layout. It makes stat blocks a little hard to read and breaks them up too much. I can honestly say that this is my only complaint.


I like the new format personally. And the inclusion of the Isle of Dread was awesome. I would love to see more of the classic material included in future issues.

My only gripe though is Wil Save. With all due respect, Will Wheaton's column sucked pretty bad. His writing style was annoying and the entire column did nothing to further my game. I'd rather see an extra Map of Mystery, a new magic item, or encounter.

One thing that I'd LOVE to see, is maybe take a part of Undermountain and flesh it out. Maybe just a few pages each issue.


Just a different opinion. I thought that the Will Save was humorous and was a breath of fresh air, as it is a total break from stories and rules to what makes a gamer/geek tick. Then again we all have different likes and dislikes. I really enjoy the new format and the way things have changed.

I really think that the adventure break down by the stages (one high, one mid and one low) is great for ongoing games at various stages. As opposed to an issue that is all high or all low. Thanks for making this DM's job a little easier....


I really appriciate that the magazine is more than just adventures as well. It really feels much more like a magazine for dungeon masters now.
