Hi everyone,
I just read that thread about the Dragon-CD-ROMs on the Dragon Message Board. I own about every Dragon issue since issue # 185 - AND I am happy that I purchased the CD-ROMs when they were still widely available. :-)
Unfortunately it was much later that I got to know Dungeon Magazine (I just dismissed Dungeon as some kind of short adventure collection, I was wrong!): I read the postings about which Dungeon adventures are all time classics, I read a similar column in the current Dungeon issue, I read the hints about predecessor adventures when reading recent issues (-> e.g. Flame's returnal). In short: I would like to buy all these old issues!
But I am facing the problem a message board reader from NZ already mentioned in the Dragon CD-ROMs thread: apart from the fact that many back issues are unavailable by now, it is somewhat pricy to buy just those issues which are still available... :-( (-> I live in Europe)
Will there be a D&D anniversary special CD-ROM-edition which sports e.g. the first one hundred Dungeon editions? (that is considerably less content and hopefully less work to do than putting 250 Dragon issues on CD-ROM. ;-) ).
What do other message board readers think about this idea?
What is the Dungeon staff's opinion?
I would definitely buy such a "Dungeon e-collection"!
Greetings from Germany,
Günther

What can I say? I also live in Germany an it took me time and money, but I have managed the feat. I am in the possession of Dungeon issues 1-116 in paper. And I am very proud of it. (1-6 are the most difficult and expensive ones, the rest is fairly easy to get...)
A friend of mine is really envious about this stack of printed bleached wood pulp and I am mining it now for a classic FR campaign with the Time of Troubles with 3.5e rule set. I know, I'll have to convert many things, but there are some real gems in there...
And I would buy a PDF collection, too, especially if it would contain conversion information...
Guennar, send me an e-mail at newfiesailor2000@yahoo.com.We'll talk.
All I need is Dungeon 2, 3 and 6. Anyone? Anyone?
I would definately buy that CD, since I started subscribing around issue 100.
I also would be interested in a CD. I would especially like to see the first 100 on CD and see another CD for each set of 100 issues in the future. Just put them in there as-was. Throw in a few more tidbits or stuff that didn't get off the cutting room floor as well. I love bloopers, honorable mentions, and free stuff. Did I mention I like bloopers?
