Star Frontiersman (18)
Welcome to the long awaited issue¸ celebrating the 30th "Anniversary" of Star Frontiers.
We started out this year in celebration with a Virtual Con in March. Thank you to all who helped set it up¸ and to everyone who participated. We had participation from coast to coast.
As you can see¸ there have been a few changes to the Star Frontiersman. We have a new layout (crafted by Bill Logan in a secret PGC lab located far below the bowls of their main building at Point True) and a new editor¸ William Douglass.
Hi I'm William¸ a.k.a. Karxan on the starfrontiers.us site. I will be heading up the next few issues and will continue the high-quality that is expected for our community webzine.
As promised in the last issue¸ we are starting out with a great interview in celebration of Star Frontiers by none other than Zeb Cook!
Also¸ look forward to a future issue with a surprise contribution from Steve Winter.
Raise your dice hand high!
