O.K., so I finally finished up getting all the Dragon Magazines I wanted today (yay!) including Dragon Magazine #40.  I am pretty sure it is complete with all inserts, but I want to make sure.

The Acaeum Periodicals section states:
First comprehensive article index.  "Outside the Znutar" game.


The Table of Contents states:
Outside the Znutar: Awful Green Things expansion kit.....Front Foldout
Rungus' Game....................................................Front Foldout
Index for The Dragon and The Strategic Review.....Rear Foldout


The Table of Contents makes it seem like there are three inserts, but it appears that the Outside the Znutar: Awful Green Things expansion kit and Rungus' Game are on opposite sides of the same foldout.  Is this the way it is in all Dragon Magazine issues #40?   :?:

That's how mine is and I'm sure they're all the same; you're making an assumption about three inserts.  If there were two articles listed as being on page 19, would you assume they each take up part of a page, or that there would be two pages numbered 19 in the magazine?

I was just making sure there weren't two front foldouts.  Thanks for the clarification.  I appreciate it.  :)

You're welcome.

I agree there is potential for confusion.  To be clear, I was trying to explain what I think the original intent was, not trying to be snarky.

:D

More like I walked across the room and opened my copy...

But yeah, let's go with what you said.   :D
