Old Articles
Hi All,
How do you access older articles, stored online? I keep on coming across loggin pages for older content but clicking on the Subscription link says this is now defunct: https://secure.sjgames.com/login/log...ml%3Fid%3D5924 Does a current subscription give you access to this content? Many thanks Max

Re: Old Articles
No a subscription does not give access. As I understand when the shift went from web based to pdf the archives were removed and are no longer available.

Re: Old Articles
Thats a shame, I keep finding snippets online of great Worldlines and pieces for Infinity Worlds.
It would be really good if these articles were collected into a Best of Pyramid: Infinite Worlds, oh well. Thanks for the response Max

Re: Old Articles
Maybe this would make for a great pyramid magazine or two by posting updated versions of older online content.

Re: Old Articles
There has been some talk since the edition change of collecting various old Pyramid articles, possibly lightly revising them, and releasing them as "Pyramid Vault" issues. Hasn't happened yet, of course.

Re: Old Articles
I think this is the problem, actually. It takes time to collate, revise, reedit, and reformat. I think they'd be better served taking each article and just quick-printing it to PDF, then sell each one for $0.99.

Re: Old Articles
They certainly could, but somehow I don't see the SJ Games of 2013 doing something as easy as that.

Then I could get the article about the Kongo Kingdom that you mentioned elsewhere. Instead, I settled for reviewing some articles I found through Google. Oh, well.

Re: Old Articles
Me too, there's quite a few I've found snippets of on Google, would be a good little money spinner for SJ
