Work Begins…

Lads and lasses,

Work has begun on stitching together Issue #5 of the Astro Mag! The release date is still a secret (read: mystery even to us) but is slated for mid-July.

If you submitted an article or story, many thanks for doing so. Do keep the gears turning for what you can do for Issue #6!

The release of Issue #5: Apocalypse will be announced here, so keep checking back!

Articles!!

Hey everyone, just a reminder that articles are due on JULY 4th if you want them to be included in Issue 5. If you need a bit of an extension on the deadline to make your article a bit better please feel free to email me and I’m sure we can work something out! For information on how to submit your article so it doesn’t get “lost” in our inbox, please read this page.

Thanks everyone and I hope your summers are going great so far (and those in the Southern Hemisphere, I hope you’re enjoying your winter!)

-Kevin

It’s the Final Countdown…

… To get those articles completed and submitted! That’s right folks, the deadline for accepting articles for Issue #5: Apocalypse is fast approaching. One week, seven days, one hundred and sixty-eight hours… well, you get the idea.

There’s still lots of time, so if you have an idea for an article or are polishing one up, get to it! Tactics, modeling, or even an Apocalypse battle report are all on the list of “Things We Need”, but don’t limit yourself to those three, especially if your talents lie in other areas of the hobby.

Finished articles, questions, comments and anything else you can think of should be emailed to theastromag@gmail.com

The clock is ticking!

Datasheet Comp Comes to a Close!

Arkaedin — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 04:27:26 +0000

Well it is 12:23am here on June 1st meaning the Apocalypse Datasheet comp has come to a close. While we didn’t reach our goal for donations, someone will be going home with a $35USD box-set of their choice plus the top three will be featured in the Apocalypse themed Issue 5 due out in June. (Those wanting to submit articles, the deadline is June 20th!). I want to thank everyone who participated as we received a total of 14 great entries! The datasheets are being shipped off to the judges who will come upon a decision by the end of the week so stay tuned!

-Kevin

Gear up!

Hey everyone, I’m a bit late on releasing this so I apologize! However, we are ready to accept articles for Issue 5 of the Astro Mag due for a July release. The theme of this issue is Apocalypse so the flood gates are open to pretty much any article you can think of! Just click on the “Submit Content” tab at the top for information on how to submit material.

Do you have a cool article idea but don’t have the time or means to see it through? Then post it in a comment! The more ideas the better, right?!

On that note, I am happy to announce that Consadine of Astronomican and Imperial-Literature will be taking the reigns as layout editor and AgnosticGod from Astronomican will be in charge of layout design. The mag will have a much cleaner and consistent look, which is great news!

A bit off topic now: only 11 days until the Datasheet Competition is coming to a close so get your entries in! You wouldn’t want to miss out would you?
