	Description Edit \| History

Vol. XII No. 7 of Dragon Magazine.

Cover Art: You can almost imagine the conversation taking place as the two would-be adventurers in Daniel Horne's cover painting come upon a particularly huge, ugly, vicious, and highly annoyed monster in their local forest. "How many pluses did you say this sword has? Is that all?" (from the contents page)

This issue featured Kings Table - The Vikings' choice in board games (this is a version of the game Hnefatafl), and Welcome to Waterdeep - The dangerous environs of a city in the FORGOTTEN REALMS setting.

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.
