This month's installment of Pyramid, the PDF magazine for roleplayers, is entitled "Magic on the Battlefield." It's 40 pages dedicated to warfare and wizardry, and includes:

• GURPS Line Editor Sean Punch's description of a group of martial mages, using both GURPS Thaumatology: Magical Styles and GURPS Mass Combat!
• Rules for armor that expand on the ideas in GURPS Power-Ups 1: Imbuements, applying them to defense!
• How the GURPS Magic system would affect navies and seafaring warfare.
• An NPC group that takes battlefield scavenging to its logical (and gruesome) extreme.
• Ready-to-print Battle Strategy cards that make GURPS Mass Combat more fast and furious!
• Two essays on what the intersection of magic and the battlefield would really mean.

In addition, Pyramid continues to supply the bits that make a magazine fun, including odds and ends, Murphy's Rules with Greg Hyland, reviews and recommendations that fit the theme, and a "Last Word," where we ask an industry luminary to pick a word or phrase related to the issue's theme. This month, Jeff Vogel, creator of the Geneforge computer games, gives the last word on battlefield magic.
