There were also a number of articles and scenarios for the game in ''Pyramid'' magazine, one of which -- [[http://www.sjgames.com/pyramid/sample.html?id=2177 "A Fist Full of Tunes You can Whistle"]] -- was originally published in the short-lived UK roleplaying magazine ''Visions'' as "A Fistful of Dwarfs". (This material was subsequently made freely available on Steve Jackson Games' Web site.) Then, at the end of 2016, [[http://www.sjgames.com/discworld/ a new edition of the sourcebook/game]] appeared, updating the setting information up to ''Literature/{{Snuff}}'' and integrating a set of customised rules based on ''TabletopGame/{{GURPS}}'' 4th edition. This included revised and sometimes abbreviated versions of much of the setting and scenario material that first appeared in ''Discworld Also''.
