If this issue seems to be following close on the heels of RP 7,
it's not because this issue is early -- it's because #7 was late! From now
on, we should be reliably hitting our bimonthly schedule -- so look for
RP 9 in early March.
This issue, we have a very different mix of features than last issue. Inside
you'll find an article on the Hospitallers, a brotherhood of holy warriors
from Yrth; two new features for GMs; and the debut of "GURPS
Talk," our new letter column. Of course, we've got all the regular
features as well, to keep you up on what's happening and what's about to
happen in the world of GURPS.
