Going on what Felix mentioned above, if Jim and Skuzzy write back
confirming that SRTCG will be canceled after Corp Wars, how many people
would still purchase the last expansion? Then how many would be dumping
their cards right now? _I_ would hope they do not cancel, but with the
market as it is around here, the excessive delays are not exactly helping
the game. Though the delays are not completely FASA's fault, unless
someone knows otherwise, except for Second Edition, I have not heard of any
new expansions in the works. Unlike how Corp Wars was mentioned before
Underworld hit the stands while Limited was still fresh.

Just rambling thoughts/food for topic debates.....

Even if SRTCG would be cancelled, I would buy CW. Itīs one of the best
TCGs available, and I will want to play it for a long time. I know my
friends would buy CW, too. ---Felix
