At the end of its print run, the magazine also featured four comics Nodwick, Dork Tower, Zogonia and The Order of the Stick. It sometimes discussed meta-gaming issues, such as getting along with fellow players. Other articles provided tips and suggestions for both players and Dungeon Masters (DMs).

A popular long-running column Sage Advice offered official answers to Dungeons & Dragons questions submitted by players. Most of the magazine's articles provided supplementary material for D&D including new prestige classes, races, monsters and many other subjects that could be used to enhance a Dungeons & Dragons game. Its coverage of games created by other companies is often peripheral. ContentĪlthough Dragon provided coverage of fantasy and roleplaying games in general, it became primarily a house organ for role-playing games produced by TSR (or more recently Wizards of the Coast), with a particular focus on D&D. Part of this announcement was the "D&D Insider" subscriber content on their Gleemax site that would include the new, online versions of both Dungeon and Dragon magazines along with tools for building campaigns, managing character sheets and other features. In August of 2007, Wizards of the Coast announced their plans for the 4th edition of the Dungeons and Dragons game. By moving to an online model we are using a delivery system that broadens our reach to fans around the world." Paizo published the last print editions of Dragon and Dungeon magazines for September 2007. Scott Rouse, Senior Brand Manager of Dungeons & Dragons at Wizards of the Coast stated, "Today the internet is where people go to get this kind of information. On April 18, 2007, Wizards of the Coast announced that it would not be renewing Paizo's licenses for Dragon and Dungeon. Class Acts, monthly one or two-page articles offering ideas for developing specific character classes, were also introduced by Paizo. It tied Dragon more closely to Dungeon by including articles supporting and promoting its major multi-issue adventures such as the Age of Worms and Savage Tide.

In 1999 a compilation of the first 250 issues was released in PDF format with a special viewer including an article and keyword search in CD-ROM format. In 1999, Wizards of the Coast was itself purchased by Hasbro, Inc. Production was then transferred from Wisconsin to Washington state. Wizards of the Coast purchased TSR and its intellectual properties, including Dragon in 1997. It subsequently went on to become one of the primary campaign 'worlds' for official Dungeons and Dragons products, starting in 1987.

A prime example is the Forgotten Realms campaign setting, which first became known through a series of Dragon articles in the 1980s by its creator Ed Greenwood. The Dragon later changed its name to Dragon Magazine and finally simply Dragon.ĭragon was the launching point for a number of rules, spells, monsters, magic items, and other ideas that were incorporated into later official products of the Dungeons & Dragons game. After 13 issues, Little Wars ceased publication and its content was folded into The Dragon (starting with issue 24). The following year, after only seven issues, TSR cancelled The Strategic Review and replaced it with two magazines, Little Wars, which covered miniature wargaming, and The Dragon, which covered role playing games.

In short order, however, the popularity and growth of Dungeons & Dragons made it clear that the game had not only separated itself from its wargaming origins, but had launched an entirely new industry unto itself. At the time, roleplaying games were still seen as a sub-genre of the wargaming industry, and the magazine was designed not only to support Dungeons & Dragons and TSR's other games, but also to cover wargaming in general.
