I was thinking more on the lines of a postal zine printed on paper but I guess
the question is relevant - Example Turnsheets / Samples/ Rulebooks and a short

Fair enough - how much for something printed, say on thirty to forty pages?

Fair points - I note that FLAGSHIP has a lot of player position histories - Does
that put you off? Do people dislike player positions histories or do they help
with knowing more about a particular game?

Also - anyone here or close to people reading this NG know anyone looking for a
bit of publicity to something they think is new / been running for a short while
which they feel more people would like if they knew about it?
