Of Dice and Meeples is a digital monthly Amateur Press Association (APA) about board, card, and similar hobby games, and is published under the Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0) license.

Contributors are expected to stay on topic and remain civil to each other. Of Dice and Meeples will be available to the public for free, so matters you don’t want publicly known should be discussed elsewhere. Please adhere to all the normal rules of public discourse: no libel, no inciting violence, no infringement of another’s copyright or trademark, and no pornography.

Zines should use reasonable page dimensions (if it's not roughly A4 or 8.5"×11" there should be a reason). Maximum zine length is 16 pages. Discussion of contemporary politics is discouraged but permitted with a maximum length for political content set at 2 pages. AI-generated material is not allowed. All artwork must be attributed to its creator, unless it is in the public domain.

When you submit your zine to Of Dice and Meeples, you are granting the APA a perpetual, non-exclusive right to publish your zine in a single issue of the APA, meaning that you retain the copyright to your work, and so you can publish it elsewhere, but you cannot force Of Dice and Meeples to unpublish your zine once it has been published.

Submission deadline for issue 1 is 6 May 2026. The Ignorable Theme is "sandbox games". Contributors may submit their PDF zines via email to:
