Polish P&P RPG magazine Magia i Miecz ('Magic and Sword'), defunct for some 10+ years is trying to come back through (also) Polish crowdfunding platform wspieram.to.

None of the original team are involved as I understand. They want 25000 PLN ($8000). Top tier of 1500 PLN gives you a lifetime subscription (so around 3 issues, I'd guess :troll:).

I am kind of lukewarm about it myself. I have all of the issues of the original MiM, but I don't know any of the people involved (supposedly they are somewhat known in Polish RPG fandom?), and I also kind of lost connection with P&P some time ago.

Magia i Miecz ('Magic and Sword')

Sword and Sorcery, motherfucker! :outrage:


Wait.

HOLY CRAP SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY

Magia i Miecz used to be one of my downright favourite mags back in the day. I didn't have all the issues, but I still remember them fondly, and sometimes get back to them for some pnp ideas.

None of the original team are involved as I understand.

oh

nevermind i guess :/


might keep observing tho

I think the official translation here is Talisman:troll:



Hey, I used to fap to one of the MiM covers when I was a git.

So, let's make a re-edition of a cult classic magazine, one decade later, with none of the old guys but people who claim to have "grown up with the original".
Yep, that'll totally end well. We've all seen it.

Do they have the rights to do anything with the old MiM run? I wouldn't mind those issues archived digitally in high quality, and I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one considering there's a fair amount of them scanned by fans already.

As to the campaign itself I'll wait and see. I've stumbled upon some of those names before, but that's about it since I don't care about the fandom, whatever that might be these days. I might pick up the first issue in pdf just to see how this is going to end up since it's dirt cheap. Good move pricing it like that.

Why are we discussing this in English?

Uwaga: okładek starych numerów Magii i Miecza użyto wyłącznie w celach informacynych.
I guess all they've got is the name then.

They are already above their funding goal (27.5 of 25K), so it seems this thing is actually happenning. We'll see about the results, though.

Fun fact:
Magia i Miecz wasn't the only Polish RPG magazine.
