Does anyone know of an online source for archived issues of Dragon magazine?

I would love to gather all the Greenwood articles and several articles for characters classes for First Edition AD&D.

Just curious.

Thanks!

I know of The DragonDex, which is just an index, the old Dragon Magazine Archive CD-ROMs, which cover issues 1-250, and a handful that are available as pdfs from Paizo.

These are the only resources I know of.

The CD-ROM would be my suggestion. its a fantastic product, although it is starting to get a bit difficult to get hold of. But you might get lucky, I bought mine three years ago (I think) new and saw a couple in another store, so it still turns up.

I got lucky on both that one and the Forgotten Realms Interactive Atlas. I got both from TSR's Mail Order Hobby Shop when they were dumping them for half-price. And though I did lose software in the fire, most of my software CDs -- including the TSR ones -- were in the CD towers I have, which were safe at home.

I think that the TSR software would have sold much better had they not released it when the home computer was just beginning to become ubiquitous. They got the software out about 3-5 years before the market was ready for it.

The Dragondex is indeed excellent does anyone know if there is a similiar one for Dungeon?



When hinges creak in doorless chambers and strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls, whenever candlelights flicker where the air is deathly still, that is the time when ghosts are present, practicing their terror with ghoulish delight.

Dungeon Index for Dungeon Magazine and

Polyhedron Index for Polyhedron.

Mods feel free to clean the lonks up!

Mod edit: I don't know what a "lonk" is (a Dark Sun critter, mayhaps? ), but I cleaned up the links.

A lonk is actually a particular breed of sheep as I recall.
