If I were you I would call Steve and ask him to verify its on its way.

Another very excellent issue. Great reading and thanks to the Crusader team!

Who ever was holding my magazine hostage released it and allowed it to cross the border yesterday. I'm halfway through the mag between everything else I've had to do.

Another great issue !

Yeah, I think I will if it doesn't show up today.

I got a question: When the A series was reviewed why didnt the Rising Knight get included? (I thought it was a prequel to Assault on Blacktooth Ridge)

I think it was sort of a prequel to A1, but they were probably just focusing on the print products. Return to Blacktooth wasn't included either. Another smaller pdf product.

Still no sign of it this side of the pond. Distributor doesn't mention it in the coming week's releases, either.

Reckon you lot'll get #17 first at this rate.

Yeah. But y'all got stonehenge so it's all fair.

I think I prefer Avebury. It's not fenced off, and there's a pub! Much friendlier, all round.

Yet sadly, still no Crusader #16 release for this week. I'm pining away over here.

My game store just got #16 in this week - somebody's distributor needs a boot up the backside.

This was a great issue - much to love and nothing to hate; but I have to say, even compared to all the other excellent articles Roadhouse Rogues blew my socks off. I'm still creeped-out by the evocative story of Izhadashae's Revenge, and I especially loved the litany to Jokashka - there's nothing like sinister diabolism set to verse. And on top of all that a new spell, new monster, and cool new spell components. This article alone was worth the cover price.

I also want to give thanks for the Lollygag Inn. I love maps that I don't have to draw myself. The more the better. (Can you really call this feature Troll Lord Freebies, though? Is this any more "free" than any other article in the magazine?).

Crusader seems to get better and better each issue - I can't wait to read #17 (and since it arrived at the shop on the same day as #16 I don't have to).

Not unless it was sent by way of Antarctica (though that may explain a few things).

I get to call my articles anything I want. We managing editors have to have some fun. I call that center page freebees because we don't have to do it if we don't want to. However, it's fast becoming one of the most popular features of the magazine.

I want you people in England to carefully watch for releases and report back to me. It should take longer for you to get your materials, but two issues of the magazine shouldn't arrive at your doorstep at the same time.

The Troll Lords pride themselves on customer service and work very hard in that area to please people.

The newest freebie became my map for Raven's Keep.

Issue #16 will forever stand out for me, for being the first time the Angry Gamer truly gave me some inspiration.

Now I'm working on a sneaky-scoutish Ranger type, essentially a wilderness Rogue, that I've tentatively called the Poacher...

EDIT: My spelling-fu is weak tonight (well, OK, morning now). Perhaps I should retire to my boudoir while I'm still vaguely lucid...
