 Ye Olde School Fan Magazines
« Thread Started on Mar 8, 2011, 10:40pm »

I started seven threads; one for "Ye Olde School Blogs", one for "Ye Olde School Resource Sites", "Ye Olde School Forum List", one for "Ye Olde School Yahoo Groups", one for "Ye Olde School Fan Magazines", one for "Ye Olde School Publishers" and one for "Ye Olde School List of Retro Games & Clones, Retro Clones, and What Have You". I will be checking these threads every so often to update the first post with everything from your posts that needs to be added so that everything is listed in the first post. If I get really ambitious I may come back and alphabetize them at some point. ;D

These are both geared towards Labyrinth Lord, but easily converted towards OD&D:

Oubliette (commercial, though issue 5 is free until the end of March)

Dyson's Dodecahedron (free)

We reviewed several in FO! a while back, and also I had a thread requesting the reviews of some of the newer ones in the FO! forum. Sorry I can't get links right now, I have got to get FO! 11 out to the teeming hundreds.

Thank you! I also like the way you have them divided up, I am stealing that also unless you object. ;D Seriously, let me know if there is anything that you want me to change. I also added your blog to my other list in this forum.

Oh, and have an Exalt!

Not a problem! It's good to have a back-up here on the forums in case something happens to my blog.

And thanks for the Exalt!

You're welcome! I am sure there must be quite a few more Fan Magazines out there, so looking forward to see what else gets posted.
