Sounds like a pretty solid idea.
Maybe we could also include some fluff as well, there are a lot of people here and on THOH who have written some excellent stories. Also some trial rules for new units might be a nice idea.
id quite happily write a short story about chaos dwarfs in any style from anythng 1000 to 7000 words, although at 250 words a page i think shorter might be better for you. check out my dragons bane thread here

if you want me to just send a pm id be very happy
You could use some of the HoH weekly narrative from the Nemesis Crown campaign. I was going to say do a conversion article. With Mr. Xander's permission, you could use stills and his words for an article.
Speaking of Xander, it'd be nice to have the full version before the tournament he's attending occurs. That way, he can take copies to show around as an advertisment for this place.
A magazine is an good idea, though it'll be a lot of work. I've been meaning to start a fluff series that could appear in multiple issues of this magazine and would gladly contribute.
If is going to be an online thing then use the layout of warseer's Watchtower mag. the first issue was awful in that respect but the second issue fixed all the flaws.
I'll gladly hell. I'm not really one for conversion or painting, so would it be okay if I covered the tactics/horoscope kind of things?
The Horoscope could be answered by Hashut himself!
Shall we work out who is doing what for the first issue?
i was just thinking im doing a tale of X gamers thing on astronomican.com about my chaos dwarf article maybe that would be suitable too. its like the old articles in white dwarf were they only had so much money each month to gradually make an army, showing progress and stuff.
if you only need 1 issue it might not be appropriate though. and i like writing stories :p
I presume somebody here has the ability to produce multi-page pdfs? We can host it here.
I have a pdf distiller on my PC, plus Open Office produces pdfs directly. They are pretty easy to get hold of now.
i can contribute some CD stuff for Blood Bowl. I have some stuff I need to edit right now actually
This is a very exciting project, I can't wait for more updates.
From what I've seen so far we are by far the most innovative warhammer forum IMO.
And yet, one of the smallest too. Apart from the DOW sites.
When would you like those examples done by?
It really should include stuff which doesn't go so much on the normal site. I'd go for conversion classes, modelling skills such as how to do weapons, robes or the like - basically something different, otherwise we mihgt as well just post the content on the site.
