However, ...Christopher, yes, I'm aware of that. However, being now and then involved in this business, I can tell that timbering a decent master for print or online/PDF publication makes no difference in time and effort. Therefore it has to be cost-efficient as well, if it's not meant to be a purely fan-based format.<br /><br />Also, there's still the question why the existent publications aren't sufficient anymore. If Lorenzo wants more content, why not enhance Extra Impetus or Dadi & Piombo? Both are (or could be) available as PDFs, too.<br /><br />Again, don't get me wrong, I do support Impetus in any way I can. I simply don't get the benefit of just another hobby magazine in this market situation.<br /><br />Cheers<br />SGSire Godefroyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13278575582941391824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649434062142208873.post-36473990472101578572011-07-27T14:23:47.458-07:002011-07-27T14:23:47.458-07:00Hard to comment from someone who isn;t a big playe...Hard to comment from someone who isn;t a big player of this type of game but I wish them all the best.Zombie Adhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01927366159778203819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649434062142208873.post-76983043549861518282011-07-26T11:17:50.711-07:002011-07-26T11:17:50.711-07:00SG,

There seems to be not much money in the wargaming magazine business. At least from a non-Italian/Anglophone perspective, the more since there are already people mourning about language issues both in D&P and Impetus.<br /><br />Therefore, apart from my sympathy with anyone trying to start something in this hobby (and so selfmade-man Lorenzo in particular), I'm not in. Sorry.<br /><br />Go ahead, tear me to pieces now. ;-)<br /><br />Cheers<br />SGSire Godefroyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13278575582941391824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649434062142208873.post-65282207776162060412011-07-25T15:48:00.763-07:002011-07-25T15:48:00.763-07:00Sounds interesting???Sounds interesting???Ray Rousellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352596392520905197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649434062142208873.post-17572374194703477582011-07-25T12:31:12.058-07:002011-07-25T12:31:12.058-07:00Good man!
