Rolemaster Fanzine 48
elcome to issue 48 of the RolemasterBlog Fanzine.
Welcome to issue 48 of the RolemasterBlog Fanzine.
The fanzine is now 4 years old! 48 monthly issues!
I am having one of those 'Where has all the time gone?' moments. It doesn't feel like I have written 48 issues of this. Of the 47 issues already published¸ 13 are DriveTruRPG bestsellers with at least Copper medals. Altogether¸ they have sold nearly 1¸700 copies.
I played around with print-on-demand versions in the early days¸ and those will be back starting in the summer. I will be putting the fanzine out as PDF on DTRPG and Kindle and in print from June onwards.
I started the fanzine because¸ at the time¸ ICE seemed to be in retreat. The Guild Companion had started as a printed magazine¸ then as an online-only magazine¸ and then just showing previews of upcoming products. Then it died off¸ or at least went into hibernation. The Adventurers' Quarterly started out quarterly but took something like seven years to publish four issues and then died.
This was all at a time when everyone was clamoring for more¸ not less. So the fanzine was born.
Drive.Thru.RPG does not support Community Copies. If you cannot afford the $1.50 asking price at this time of year the entire fanzine is readable in the Full-size preview above.
