And White Dwarf (prior to the GW acquisition) used to be a great magazine, loads of varied articles (though most were fantasy based), some off the wall ideas about gaming, artwork and a lot of stuff pertaining to AD&D.
Ah, that is a common misapprehension.
The magazine you mention so fondly was owned by Games Workshop, it was the takeover by Citadel and the move to Nottingham you are referring to.
I have the feeling that they published one of Charles Stross's first articles (The Grey Men).
