With a pretty cool Jeff Easley cover which also serves as a reward for the winner of the RPGA membership drive, Sonny Scott, it shows his favourite character, Swat, in action. It’s a pretty cool reward to get your player character illustrated by Jeff Easley, I’d say. 

This issue also makes a point of publishing articles by RPGA members, such as one on “Role” Playing, about how it’s rewarding to actually play a role in the game rather than just see it as a dice rolling game. Another article, this time by Roger E. Moore on DM’s being sparing with Artifacts and Relics is also pretty good.

There’s also a pretty useful page for completists like yours truly with a list of TSR licensed products and respective manufacturers, so if you didn’t know that there were AD&D Wood Crafts, Wood Burning and Candle Making Kits produced by Natural Science Industries, now you do!
