Its fun to me because you have to strain your eyes to see if anything is worthy. I have gotten pretty good at spotting something that looks off-color, even though I can't see the title. _________________

I wouldn't expect D&D to be in there, but who knows. Wargaming and role-playing take second fiddle to things like Monopoly or checkers. The simple cardgame/boardgame has ruled the gaming world for decades. Wargames and role-playing games are more complex, and so appeal to a smaller audience. I'm very curious, though, to look at the advertisements. The mags I have coming cover the end of '77, and all of '78 and '79--the years TSR found its formula. 1977-82 are my favorite TSR years, marked by creativity and innovation.
My Games Magazines came today and I was pleased to find a D&D article and a small sample dungeon called "The Dungeon of Anhara" by the author of the article, Jeff Johnson. I'm just skimming through things now, but there are game company ads present. _________________ "This is cool."

Wasn't someone looking for the Dragon Queen something or another?
That would be Allan. He's been looking for a D&D tourney called "Treasures of the Dragon Queen" or something like that. I'm sure that he ripped a lock of hair out of his head when WOTC came out with the Dragon Queen line. _________________ "This is cool."
