Order it from FASA, maybe, if you want it real fast...

In the mean time, I'm sorry.

They were, at first, dealing with a kidnapping of a major corp's
son (I don't remember the corp name, but it was NOT extraterritorial...).
With proof that he was there, they went in...they'd already fought one horde,
so they were going in with BIG guns blazing.

It hasn't, really. The UB was apparently shut down a few years
ago, but with not enough explanation for why. So lots of people took what was
there as propaganda. The stuff continued, sortof.

True. Not anymore, at least. It could have just been something
that HAPPENED before, but...

I wouldn't be so sure about this case. This is the biggest thing
that FASA has done yet in their gameworld. I have a feeling that timing
IS going to matter...especially if they put out Denizens II.

(Sorry, Harlequin II. Oops.)

My posts are no more world effecting than would be ones discussing
the Crash of '29.

It's happened in the world, so I was dealing with it.

> Any one else willing to give a try?

Well, I just bought it, so I'll give some stuff later...
