=I= E-Zine, Volume 1: Issue 2 Ok.. to get this started off in the right way... Here's what I thought we can include so far.
We have our own SteveBerenyi doing a to scale model of the different Classes of Knight Titans, with the Dead_Commando doing some fluff on them. This will be accompanied by the Apocalypse VDR giving us the ability to make rules for them! I checked and as long as we credit GW with the VDR and make the usual disclaimers, we are legally fine!
I thought we could have perhaps Dead_Commando post up his true-scale marine tutorial/blog. I think the more modeling related things we can have, the better. Unique projects that are starting to bloom around here should draw in interest!
I had also thought to ask Wolfpack and/or Dan296 to perhaps post up one or more of their chapters of fluff. If I can get ahold of Icarus, i'll ask him about the 40k Terra Novellete going into a future issue, but right now I think it's best we not push too much on him.
So that leaves us so far with at least (provided they consent), 2 conversion/how-to's, 1-2 pieces of fluff, and not much else. I think this would also be a good time to introduce another rules dev. piece like Codex: Alienhunters. Perhaps if Cag pipes up we can have him loan us that beautifully crafted bit on the Custodes, and he might consent to write up some supporting fluff and include his pics of his squad!
So, that would leave us with another possible rules dev. I'd like someone to cover Gamesday Chicago and Baltimor (I think it happens before Apoc comes out) as well as the release of Apocalypse. Stitch, I might get with you about also doing some coverage on Astronomi-con? That would leave us with some good current events! Also, perhaps a Codex: Chaos Space Marines review by someone who can give it an honest look over?
Now, the plan I have for the mag is done, what do you guys think?! I'm keenly interested to hear some suggestions, volunteers, and everything else! And please, please do volunteer. If your stuff won't fit this mag, I'll try and use it next! Promise!
Also, rather than the way it was done before, I am speaking to Ikarus and a few others on this issue being in PDF, as it will circulate easier that way, and enables those who would want to print out the zine and drop it at local shops (though I do suggest AGAINST GW's... Might be a bit touchy).
So, get to suggesting and cracking people! We also could do with a logo/cover design idea, and I just thought... Killer.. Would you like a ranting column? We'd have to keep it a little more restrained, & 40K related but it'd be interesting.
