What is in your opinion the best issue of Dragon? One for every edition
And why? |

You just made me a very happy fiend. :D
it would be the first place, if the articles were longer and the archomentals are not as interesting as other planar lords |

One of my favorites, plus the first one I ever bought. |

I do not really have a favourite issue of Dragon Magazine - I tend to think more in terms of favourite articles. But If I had to have a shot at it, I'd say #172 (Schend and Greenwood on Skullport, but also one of the most valued articles in the Princess Ark series) and the linked #176 (the drow of the Promenade). Also rather splendid: #75 and #76, with Big Ed's articles on the Nine Hells. |

Always a good idea to have this one on hand when tackling the "Bas-Lag" books for the first time. For the very-weird creatures and locales...

I don't remember the older ones, started buying at number 287.

Honorable mentions. I have about 15 at the game at all times, the rest are scattered.
2. 353 cause it's most usable, Malcanthet, FR outsiders, best class acts, Keepers, demiplanes, archomentals ...
3. 357 - Demogorgon article, Wells of Darkness, titans, arcane plants, companions
4. 338 - Boccob article, magic schools and staffs, spellweavers
5. 349 - Hordelands article, Dagon, psionic feats, Ogre Mage ecology
6. 337 - Zuggtmoy, illithid minions, Lords of Dust, face paints, spell grafts, Shadar-kai
7. 334 - Crimmor, monsters, alchemist and other items, krakens
8. 290 - Slavic campaign world, death knights of Oerth
9. 340 - small constructs, inevitables, Baphomet
10. 350 - magical workshops and pollution, Wee Jas article, clockwork horrors, totemist soulmelds
Also I keep 255 (life-shapes), 313, 309, 355, 327, 358, 288. There was a different top ten list in the last magazine.

309: Githyanki incursion is even greater, the artwork
Only if you're a fan of githyanki. And I'm not.  |

I don't have a partciular favourite.
Really, any issue containing lore from the "Realms Greats" like Ed, Steven, Eric, Elaine, or George, all rank pretty highly in my listing of favourite issues of DRAGON Magazine.

163- was that the issue with the variant dragon "templates"? I think I have that one! |
