That's fantastic that somebody is putting this out! Looks like RSI is at least advertising in it, via the final page of the issue! The exact same ad they were running in like 1986! Guess if it ain't broke...

I would be interested in writing an article but don't know if I can find the time to make it really good. Hopefully one of us (or someone at RSI??) can make it happen. We could use the visibility, and I think the story of RSI and their handful of games and how they have survived is a great story!

Well, even if your article isn't "really good," it will likely be better than there not being an article, at all.

Lee approved the modified Hyborian War ad. Most people that I know that played that game encountered it via the original ad. So, I felt that it wasn't broke, as far as ads go.

We could run a Duel2 ad, also, if Lee approves it.

Any artists here? Perhaps someone could draw something, to accompany your article? Just a suggestion.

What have we come upon with this? Never written an article but I could perhaps step up if Stik's family obligations take up all of his time.... I've written quite a few ToGS stories and Duelmaster Spotlights.

As to the artwork the Gladiator on the original ADM turnsheets would suffice somewhat crudely since it has some color.

Thus far, no one has sent me anything, there isn't anything to include.

For an ad, Lee will need to approve it.

For an article, one or more need to just submit it to me. Send it to:

I'm working on an article, but real life keeps interrupting my efforts. Is there a deadline?

The submission deadline for issue # 3 (January 2014 issue) is January 20th. Typically, though, the issue doesn't get published until the last day or two of the month.

You can always submit an article for the following issue, if you don't make it for a certain month's issue. If I receive it before I publish a given issue, odds are, I will include it. My main concern is making sure that the magazine is published in 4-page increments.

Issue # 3 of Suspense & Decision magazine is out, now.

http://playbymail.net/mybb/showthread.php?tid=815

Unfortunately, nobody submitted any articles for Duel2. But, perhaps someone will take time out to do one for issue # 4, the February 2014 issue.

Anybody able to bring this to the attention of the group in the chat room?

I would, but right now it just isn't possible. Somebody, step up!

Sounds like Darque is working on it, let the man work I say! He'll do it justice!

I have an idea and I will work on it. I also write for a fashion magazine. Don't laugh. Laughing

But I will try and get something out to you.

Issue # 4's submission deadline is now less than a week away.

Would love to have something Duel2 related for this issue, if anyone is up to the task and feels like it and has the spare time to do it.

Grimfinger

Please keep updating and reminding and motivating us.

Sooner or later one of us DMers (whoops - D2ers) will find/make time and there will be at least one DM article.

I promise.

P.S. It would help if you could throw any of the HW games you are in to any of us DMers playing! Wink
