Related Issues
Here is a list of past issues of d12 Monthly that you may find compliments this issue:
Issue 27 is all about random encounters and would be very useful for the emergent play style that Tales of Argosa aims for.
Issue 16 offers you a guardroom full of weapons and some low-fantasy natural weapons, as well as new rules for them.
Issue 7 is all about travelling in the wilderness and while some of the rules for travel are similar to ToA, but you may still get some useful additions from it.
