I've often thought of subscribing, but the journals I have seen seem to be pretty backwards looking with a lot of emphasis on Rapid Fire and other older rule sets. Is this still the case?

I really, really, really, need to renew membership. Lovely colour cover btw.

I was editor of the magazine for 8yrs I think we had 3-4 Rapid Fire! articles in all that time, so I`m not sure what you mean Bob??

A lot of the stuff published is very generic, history based, we support any and all systems, but can only publish what we get – simple! Check out the website (there are some sample articles to look at); also visit the forum, see what things are like.
