Would it be possible to have the distribution channels (like Wizards Attic,
White Wolf, etc) include the pamphlets in orders that are shipping to
Retailers already. For example when someone orders products unrelated to
d20, the distributor could throw a couple of d20 pamphlets in the box.
Also, when was that d20 Magazine due to hit the shelves? I'd assume, that
the d20mag would be distributed to everyone who currently stocks Dragon, and
Dungeon magazines.
