  • The Dragon Magazine #5
    March ’77 DRAGON RUMBLES The eastern portion of the US is not the only area of the country to have suffered a blizzard this winter, though mine has been of a dif- ferent nature. A month or two ago, I placed a listing in WRITER‘S DIGEST, as a market for science fiction, fantasy and swords & sorcery. Within two weeks of that appearance, I have been inundated with a barrage of inquiries and unsolicited manuscripts, most of which aren’t right for these pages. But I’m reading, or having them read by Gary Jaquet , who has become my voluntary associate (meaning unpaid), every single one. What this means to all of the writers that have sent me submissions is that you should expect a response, but not soon. I have extended invitations to a number of authors of fantasy and science fiction games, other than D&D and EPT, to write on their creations for these pages. While we recognize that D&D started the fan- tasy gaming genre, there are now a number of science fiction and fan- tasy games available that we feel should be treated in this magazine. I extend this invitation to non-authors (of games) to do this also. I’m looking for articles on STELLAR CONQUEST, THE YTHRI, WBRM, GODSFIRE, STARSHIP TROOPERS, OUTREACH, Contents SORCERER, STARSOLDIER, GREEN PLANET TRILOGY, Witchcraft Supplement for D&D. ............................ 4 OGRE, MONSTERS-MONSTERS, VENERABLE DESTRUCTION More on METAMORPHOSIS ALPHA ....................... 10 and others. It’s time for THE DRAGON to expand its subject matter. I Featured Creature ....................................... 12 want to get into fantasy miniatures as well.

The report begins by outlining Triple E RV’s issues with the composite material which are to be addressed, as well as constraints imposed on the design. A thorough needs analysis was then performed to determine design targets and marginal values. The report then presents the iterative process of brainstorming concepts to address individual issues, and evaluating the performance of these concepts. Lastly, the report explains the final design developed by the team in detail, and summarizes the overall project, goals achieved, and recommendations for the client moving forward. Several Appendices are then attached containing all technical engineering drawings developed by the team, the in-depth concept generation and selection process, analytical calculations regarding design specifications and safety, a thorough stress analysis of all components of the design including finite element analysis, weld sizing, and bolt bearing stresses, and lastly, an in-depth cost analysis of the final design. Thank you for your time, and please contact us with any concerns or feedback you may have.

  • Album of the Week: Chadwick Stokes' the Horse Comanche,Album Of
    Album Of The Week: Chadwick Stokes’ The Horse Comanche He’s an integral part of Boston-based acts Dispatch and State Radio, but Chadwick Stokes has also built a reputable solo career. Straying from the jam rock of Dispatch and the reggae-infused punk of State Radio, Stokes’ solo material revolves around folk music that sounds like something you’d listen to while sitting around a campfire with a few close friends. His new album, The Horse Comanche, is a continuation of Stokes’ solo style in the most excellent form. With a few added dimensions, Stokes’ take on folk is broadened and expanded with each track. Produced by Iron & Wine’s Sam Beam, the quality of sound in The Horse Comanche is impeccable. Stokes doesn’t limit himself to just one type of music; there’s a great variety of styles exhibited and you get an introduction to Stokes’ versatility when it comes to writing a song and strumming his guitar. Some tracks have an infectious groove while others have a lot of heart and passion, making The Horse Comanche pleasurable in all sorts of ways. There’s a certain catchiness with a few songs as well, but not in an annoying way where you’re praying to the heavens to get those meaningless lyrics out of your head. Don’t let all of this New England snow get you down. Take the opportunity to nestle in your favorite blanket and snuggle with my top tracks off of the Album Of The Week. It might not warm you up, but your music taste will benefit.
