<< Sorry, I have never seen an issue of AF (and doubt I ever will at this
stage) so I have to ask, could you go into a little more detail on how
it was modular? >>

Well, first of all, each issue was loose-leaf and 3-hole punched. A
subscribers' first issue came with a blue 3-ring binder with the AF logo on the
front and spine. The subscriber could then either put them in the binder in
order of issues....OR....take advantage of the issue's modular structure and
put all "Game Reviews" together and all "Game Design Articles" together, etc.,
etc.

Each issue was broken into these 'departments' and were complete unto
themselves (ie. full pages, no small portion of an article is continued onto
another page with another article) so that they could be pulled from their
present position in the magazine and put elsewhere if desired.

Personally, I never wanted to take my issues apart. But if the magazine run had
been a lot longer (like 10 or more issues, let's say) then  I could see the
benefit of possilby having all game design articles together or all articles
that pertain to Starweb together.

That was the plan anyways....(sigh)
