	Description Edit \| History

Vol. XI No. 7 of Dragon Magazine.

Cover Art: Some time ago, we received an unusual set of pictures in the mail. Peter J. Botsis, of Rochester, NY, created a scratch-built red dragon in its lair, complete with gold coins and the remains of several treasure hunters. Sue Weller photographed it; the sculpture is actually several feet long. We immediately decided it was perfect for a December cover ("Rangers roasting on an open fire...") (from the contents page)

This issue featured the special attraction Maritime Adventures: Oceans of gaming information - 5 articles for waterborne adventuring.
It also listed the "Gamers' Guide," which was an index of all the advertising in the issue and "TSR Previews," a list of upcoming products from TSR.

(There is errata for the "Dragons Bestiary" article on page 61 of Dragon #118)
