#12 needs it's product description rewritten ...

Post by anglefish »

On the website, it says that The die is cast article is about high level games, when it's actually a CKG sneak peek.

The Mass Combat article is also missing.

Either that, or I've been missing those articles every time I look through the book from cover to cover.

Ya, those descriptions were written a long time ago, some even before Jim Ward took over, as the Trolls planned out future issues - so some parts are remembered to be changed as plans and events evolved, and others sometimes don't.

I'm sorry for those mistakes. The cover gets printed first and sometimes things get shifted or move or deleted altogether. That does happen with every magazine in the universe.

So far when I can manage 32 pages I'm happy. Now the cruel trolls want me to fill 36 pages starting with December, sigh. I had no idea trolls were so nasty. In the old D&D days when Gary Gygax was running the fantasy show we would find them and kill them and kill them some more when they regenerated. Now they are the bosses, imagine my surprise.

I would like all the readers to seriously consider subscribing to the magazine. We have lots of surprises coming in the future. I have a Tom Wham game in the works that I know you all are going to like a lot. I have some articles I've been dying to write for a few years. We have lots more board game reviews I want to do.

Although I think the magazine was good before I started helping, I think 2009 is going to be an amazing year for Crusader. You all could help me out by subscribing because when you sign on the Trolls at headquarters are much nicer to me. Help a fellow gamer out, would you?

My renewal starts with 13 so I'm set. Now if 13 would get here, I'm chomping at the bit for a Crusader fix.

Are the missing articles going to be in #13 or a web article? I'm looking forward to both of them.
Just for clarification, it wasn't the cover I was talking about, it was the online description, which I hope your online store allows for you guy to modify and tweak after posting. (otherwise, I feel for you guys. We fans need to buy more product so you guys get a better online store. LOL!)

Then there's always posting on this Crusader about any last minute changes. This crew seems pretty forgiving when it comes to bad news *cough* CKG taking forever *cough*
