Topic: WD Alternative online magazine for 40K online? (now recruiting)

[Shizukanashi]

Shorter more frequent issues would be great.  I think only like 10 pages would be aceptable for an issue, at least at the start.  I think the problem was that everybody set the bar too high.  This thing is almost a year in the making.  I vote we just get it out there, with what we have.  Shoot for a quarterly mag, and hopefully things will pick up.  As soon as we see a first issue I am sure there are many of us excited about this who could contribute to a second issue.

I vote for this too, because right now i have mentally cancelled this project.

[Alexander's Son]

 I had always in my mind the project but I am the kind of the type of the guy who wants to see first... so I will vote for this too!

[Vespasian Swiper]

Fantastic 'agreement'

I'll cobber together a 20/5 page minimag and hopefully have it done...2/3 weeks.

At the latest, should have it done end of today/Friday.

[Col.Gravis]

Shorter would be better, leave the big stuff to Firebase (FYI it's been resurrected)

[Adam LongWalker]

FireBase Ressurected? Great who is doing this?

[Vespasian Swiper]

Ok, I'll use the 'original' content which was prepared for the 1st mag. All 'secondary' content will go into the second edition.

Great fun. Hopefully I'll have it all ready by Sunday... as I have to have it ready by Monday...

Im a bit of a newbie, but I've been playing DoW for as long as it came out so I may be able to help with that. I know most of the basic tactis, gameplay style etc.

Then write up an article, and send it to our editor, Swiper.

I want it noted that I'm not too sure about the move to a smaller version, I'm concerned that the quality might suffer.

[Vespasian Swiper]

Smaller, more often - should mean more articles to choose from and go for those with the highest quality

[Adam LongWalker]

I have to see what the output is going to be in this Web-zine.

I do have access to a technical writer and an artist or two.

BUT

I want to see the end product before issuing recourses to this project that I might be interested in doing.

[diluted]

i could help with the LOTR ive played and read most the rule books and would be glad to contribute to this wicked idea!

[Heretek]

Then write up an article, and send it to the editor, Swiper.

I suspect it won't appear in the first edition, since it's apparently already on the way.

[diluted]

wait... when shall i give th artical to swiper? ( must read last pages) and could the artical be on , shall i say choosing a 500 point force??

[Heretek]

You can write about whatever you want, and submit it whenever you like, when it's finished is the commonly accepted time.

But bear in mind that, as the editor, Swiper has the final say about what appears in the magazine.

[diluted]

im fine with that, BUT one last question how long shall it be? i dont want to pump it into people

[Heretek]

I don't think there is an accepted word limit, just write however much you want, and if Swiper reckons you've written too much, he'll trim it. He is the editor, that is his job.
