The fourth issue of Dragon and the last of 1976 is a special issue dedicated to Empire of the Petal Throne, another D&D-like game developed by M.A.R. Baker, a linguist, game designer and man that we now know also wrote neonazi novels under a pseudonym…so, you know, a complex figure? 

Anyway, because it is an EPT special issue there is little in terms of D&D content, many of the usual features have been suspended for this issue, the new creature is for EPT, etc. There are only two things of relevance for D&D fans, one being a humorous column with funny monsters and items, while the other is a review of some miniatures for use with D&D. Not much of interest here unless you are into EPT, which I’m not, so I skipped those articles. .
