I loathe advertising, Spam, junk mail, etc. ... so I guess we get what we pay for ... I really don't mind G/W ads in W/D, because they usually interest me, but non-G/W, F/W, hobby, modeling, etc., would annoy me.

Hi!
Not having ads in their publication is their corporate choice, but I dont think "I" as a consumer should support financially that choice paying a high subscription cost, especially when most of their publications are mere "ad-rags".
IF it were wholely content and no ads of any kind, I would consider it (and thats a BIG if), but given their usual ad to content ratios I doubt it.

I believe most of the important stuff that will be in the mags will eventually be posted as pdf files on their relevent websites (ie Epic, BFG, Warmaster, etc). Although, I would love to support Fanatic and get their mag, if the subscription price is as high as some feel it may be then I'll just download what I want from the sites.

Hi!
I would worry about articles and such since they'd probably make an "annual" like they do for the other systems and you can get what you need that way or by simple downloads of PDF's.

36 pound is the same price as WD subscription. So whatever a WD subscription costs in your area, a fanatic mab subscription should cost the same. I don't think GW price everything exactly on the exchange rate amounts.

You can pre-order Fanatic Mag 1 as of today in the UK. I just did
?6 a pop (outch - thats a whole epic 3 marines!)as its a ?4 mag & you have to pay postage on advance orders (even iff at half rate....).
Subscriptions will start from issue 2, but they havent got that setup on their system yet so cant take orders for it.
I have no idea what the plans are for overseas orders.
May UKMO now be swamped......

I'm gonna subscribe to the fanatic mag, but I'll wait until I see the details in issue 2 then. I'm not gonna pay even more for it by advance ordering.

A bit OT (again!), but check out the S/G site pic ! Old Epic Warmonger Imperator Titan (unreleased) (?) ... Maybe we'll see it in the future ?! (I got mine !)
