On the Horizon[]

A quick look at what’s coming next issue.

We've decided to revive this column which tells you what is coming in the next issue of White Wolf Magazine. For a while we ran on such a tight schedule that we sometimes couldn't predict what would appear in the next issue. But now we have our act together. Next issue is our annual Fantasy Issue.

  1. A one-on-one fantasy adventure called "Class Reunion." It's been ten years since you "graduated" from your hometown militia (i.e. you served the required five years) and your class is having a reunion. You're the only one who went on to better things. What do your old friends think of you now?
  2. An adventure for Ars Magica written by Lion Rampant. In "The Golden Ship" the disappearance of two ships leads to the troupe north in search of a legendary artifact.
  3. A preview/review of palladium's huge 1990 release, "Rifts." The game promises to tie together the wide assortment of genres which Palladium's products already cover.
  4. The return of "The Scope of Magic." Several interesting new spells from a single author.
  5. Results of our Reader Survey (this was included in last issue). Shame on you if you haven't returned it yet. Drop everything and...
  6. An expanded "Capsule Reviews."
  7. Reviews of a couple PBM games that didn't make this issue.
  8. Plus, a new contest in "On Your Mark."
