Well, a bat'leth would help ensure transparency and provide a more satisfying forum to express opinions or air grievances. It might help ensure transparency, but you'd have to slice awfully thin for that...

I'm sure there is something on that planet they can use. That is, provided they haven't already eaten it into extinction. I think you may have just discovered one of the greatest, albeit obscure, insults from a Klingon scientist. "Your glasses are made from cows horn!"

OK, it's time to put out a call for artists. Any artists on the board who would like to do some work for issue 15? Drop me a message.
We got plenty to go around.

Not trying to stir up any flames, but thank you for first calling for artists instead of AI feeders. I know the AI subject has been touchy on other platforms. I would like to see an attempt made at human-created art before opening up to AI created. I suspect it won't be long before we have AI created adventures and campaigns hitting the stores (they are probably there already). I wonder how an AI created ruleset would play? I'm not AI-phobic, but am definitely human-supremacist.

I suspect it won't be long before we have AI created adventures and campaigns hitting the stores (they are probably there already). I wonder how an AI created ruleset would play? I'm not AI-phobic, but am definitely human-supremacist. This whole AI thing is becoming political and I'd rather avoid politics if at all possible. However, I absolutely cannot stand CGI art created in 3D programs such as Blender; Poser Etc. CGI art always tries to look real but it misses the mark by a mile, probably because of the uncanny valley. Most AI art has that same nasty CGI look to it and I will never run CGI art in TZ. Also, while I have no rule against AI art, I will never call on AI feeders or anyone peddling it. The rule is simple: Always to the artist first, and then to the public domain, just as the good lord intended. At some point however, AI will improve and become a serious and affordable contender, but that will more than likely be far down the road, and if I'm still in charge of TZ at that time, then I'll deal with it, but for now, I'm confident in saying that TZ will not be running AI art. That being said though, when it comes to advertisements, the advertiser can do whatever they want, AI or CGI, it's not my place to tell businesses what art they can or can't use in their ads, that's what the consumers are for, and a business can die on that hill if they want to.

Deadline time. I was going to make the deadline the last week of March, but with that being a holiday week and with my team recovering from covid, colds and other medical issues I'm bumping it to the second Friday of April.
So if anyone has a submission they want in issue 15, they need to get it in soon.

HELP! I'm trying to find "d" who I think is the editor of Trollzine. unfortunately neither facebook or my emails can identity anyone by just one letter ( know hundreds of people with "d" in their name! I have a brand new 9 page GM adventure ready to submitted to Trollzine complete with art and maps ready to send him, but I don't know how to contact him. Can anyone help?

So if anyone has a submission they want in issue 15, they need to get it in soon. I DO! I have a 9 page PDF GM adventure with art & maps all put together and made in A4 format. I just need to find out who to send it to - I was in contact with someone whose only name was "d" and I can't find them at the moment. Steve
