It was the first publication to focus solely on role-playing games. The name "Alarums and Excursions" comes from a stage direction for the moving of soldiers across a stage, used in Elizabethan drama.[1] HistoryIn APA-L, the APA of Los Angeles's SF Fandom, usually collated at the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society, Bruce Pelz felt that discussion of Dungeons & Dragons was taking up too much space.[2] Gold began the publication of Alarums and Excursions at the request in June 1975. The initial aim of the publication was to prevent the playing styles to become so divergent that people couldn't participate in games together.[3][4] It was a four-time winner of the Charles Roberts/Origins Award, winning "Best Amateur Adventure Gaming Magazine" in 1984,[5] "Best Amateur Game Magazine" in 1999,[6] and "Best Amateur Game Periodical" in 2000[7] and 2001.[7] The June 2017 collation of Alarums and Excursions was #500, with a color cover drawn by Lee Moyer and printed by Rob Heinsoo. ContentsEach issue is a collection of contributions from different authors, often featuring game design discussions, rules variants, write-ups of game sessions, reviews, and comments on others contributions. Although game reports and social reactions are common parts of many A&E contributions, it has also, over the years, become a testing ground for new ideas on the development of the RPG as a genre and an art form. The idea that role-playing games are an art form took strong root in this zine, and left a lasting impression on many of the RPG professionals who contributed. The 1992 role-playing game Over the Edge was inspired by discussions in A&E.[8] Over the years, contributors have included: {{div col|colwidth=18em}}
