It's not independent.  The original stated purpose was to help bring
players up to speed, and the first few issues contained useful
tidbits about how combat is computed, what some special training
types and some ancient arcana spells look like, and other odds and ends.
Trouble is, the MG folks didn't have the time to write the articles,
so the publication went from monthly to bimonthly, and is now quarterly --
meaning that they'll get around to it in a couple of months.  Since they
*still* won't have the time, they're asking *players* to submit articles,
which lowers its value somewhat.  One subscribes by including a note
with one's turn.  I don't know what the subscription fee would be, but
you can always ask them.

And there is more to it than this, for dancing is practised to
reveal whether lovers are in good health and sound of limb, and
after which they are permitted to kiss their mistresses in order that
they may touch and savour one another, thus to ascertain if they
are shapely or emit an unpleasant odour as of bad meat.  Therefore,
from this standpoint, quite apart from the many other advantages to
be derived from dancing, it becomes an essential in a well-ordered
society. -- Thoinot Arbeau (1588)
