Great Job Everyone! This is great. And if anyone has read an issue of Rolling Stone or GQ lately, it moves around the magazine more than this one does!

I liked the Astrogoth stuff, and Eavy Hat is classic. It was cool to get the Black Dwarf stuff in there, especially with the Golden Hat ending last night. And I'll have to give the sneaky gits a try....

All in all, a great job, and I am sure you guys learned some things to make it even better next time. I can hardly wait, and appreciate all of the hard work you guys put in. Hope to join you as a contributor soon!

Well, it certainly turned out well Happy

Some good articles in there, and decent fiction too. I especially like Astragoth Takes Hat off
Awesome piece of work.

Loved the stories, but I'm off to convert some sneaky gits now...hahaha

Wow, what a great webzine! You did an awesome job for sure!

The cover is simply stunning and gets one in the mood right from the beginning. Exceptionally done!

The layouting is quite plain and simple mostly which is pretty fine with me because you don't have unnecessary images loading each time you turn the page. I don't find the scattered texts that annoying.. they sort of tie the entire issue together.

The photos of the models really bring this magazine to life. Good move keeping them in high quality.

The page count is definately not too much. It is dictated by the content which is top quality. Let's cross our fingers that there will be enough submissions so that it will stay that way for future issues. Considering the brilliant posts on this board and the turnout of the competitions alone I am not worrying about this at all, though!

However I have to complain a little: The chaos column on page 11 is partly covering the Chaos armour rules.. the image should be behind the text obviously. And it's "Border Town Burning" not "Bordertown Burning" as under writers in the credits section, but, seriously, who cares...

An overall awesome webzine. Great production. You can tell the contributors love their hobby.

Thanks a lot for the hard work!


NB: You should defiantely put a note below the download link and inform people about the incompatibility with Firefox (which is astounding, by the way). How about providing this link instead (should work for anyone):

I havn't read it yet, but the cover already blew me away with amsoneness
my computer wont dowload it.
it opens a new window but it dosent open adobe.
does anyone know how to fix this?
right mouse button and save as, that is how I got the file
I use firefox and I just saved the file to my computer, he didn't want to load the file in the browser.
ummm... it might just be my computer, but it wont load.

I don't think anyone would have been disappointed with a full-size uncropped Ishkur Taurus taking up half a page, or a larger image of the Blood Bowl Team.


Oho, thanks for being flattering.

As to the magazine, nice work! I've only skimmed it, and I was quite pleasantly surprised when I saw my team in it. It's a pity the picture used had 2 unpainted Hobgoblin heads, but still, thanks. I'll be looking forward to the next one.

well, I think that WILLMARK did an amazing job, and without him this never would've happened. Happy

and if I missed any spelling mistakes, my apologies! so many words seem to have spelling variations, I dunno.

as for layout, I know that often articles are split, unfortunately in my editing was done in Word, so everything was in one block, not in a layout... anyways, I still think it's great Happy

good work to all contributors!
Joined just so I could comment on the Fanzine.

OMG!  Very professionally done and it is awesome!

I did not know that anyone did anything for Chaos Dwarves!  Excellent!
the fun never stops here at CDO! Wink
thanks for the second link it works for me now. finished reading it and it is easily as good as white dwarf if not better. i like the fact that the title dosent cover to much of the cover art it means i can stick it on my wall as a poster to cover the ugly textured wallpaper Sick

HappyCheers!
I think we need a new thread... Webzine #2!!!
