 October 8, 2007 - 3:33am | Bill's been hard at work on the next issue, and lemme tell ya, I think it's gonna be a killer. I've seen the new "tweaked" layout look and I'm honestly very excited. In addition to my Alternity alien conversions (complete with seven new weapons, all illustrated by Bill himself!), Imperial Lord has added a gigantic article for STAR FRONTIERS GMs, and Corjay has contributed a whole star system. Bill assures me there's even more goodness that he hasn't told me about specifically. The Frontiersman has been out of action for a few months, now, but I think this should make up for it and prove the Revival is stronger than ever!

 October 8, 2007 - 8:49am | *huge beaming grin* That's the plan. One thing I'd like to make sure we don't wimp out on is adventure suggestions/synopses. I started doing a few per issue in Issue 1, and since then other people have submitted. But the "Adventure!" article has been lacking, and I received emails requesting more in that arena. Anyone who wants to throw a lil plot line together, that would be great! I don't want full-fleshed-out mini-adventures... although those might be neat too. The formula of the StarFrontiersman has been intellectual discussion and options added to modular pieces of *stuff* that can easily be inserted into nearly any campaign setting. So to keep with that formula, the "Adventure!" article always provided plot sketches more than anything else, to help get a Referee's creative juices flowing and to provide instant usable material. Even folks who don't play the game regularly should be able to come up with an idea or two... ya know? 3. We wear sungoggles during the day. Not because the sun affects our

October 8, 2007 - 6:39pm | Update: I have four articles complete - and they total 22 pages. I'm currently working on some of my map tiles... anyone else have anything to add? What about you, ShadowShack? Any of that great content from any of your many forum posts throughout the 'net? or anything new and original? :-) 3. We wear sungoggles during the day.
