Dragon (magazine)

Dragon is one of the two official magazines for source material for the Forgotten Realms, first published in 1976.

History
In 1975, TSR. began publishing The Strategic Review. In short order, however, the popularity and growth of Dungeons & Dragons made it clear that the game had not only separated itself from its wargaming origins, but had launched an entirely new industry unto itself. The following year, after only seven issues, TSR cancelled The Strategic Review and replaced it with The Dragon which later became Dragon Magazine and finally Dragon.

A compilation of the first 250 issues was released; also included were the 7 issues of The Strategic Review. This compilation is known as resume writing service the software title Dragon Magazine Archive.

The final printed issue was #359 in September 2007. Shortly after the last print issue shipped in mid-August, 2007, Wizards of the Coast re-launched Dragon as an online Magazine, continuing on the numbering of the print edition.

Content
Although Dragon was originally designed to support the roleplaying industry in general, it has always been primarily a house organ for role-playing games with a particular focus on D&D.

Most of the magazine's articles provide supplementary material for the game including new prestige classes, races, monsters and many other subjects that can be used to enhance a Dungeons & Dragons game. Other articles will provide tips and suggestions for players and DMs.
