While this doesn't answer any of the questions, hopefully it'll shed some
light on FASA's silence. To the best of my knowledge, FASA isn't dead.......
just busy.

Right now, they're scrambling to get out 2nd Run, Underworld, and Battleforce
(for BattleTech) With Jim and Mike (and Mike M.) suddenly become the card
experts in addition to the jobs they had BEFORE the CCG. Remember Jim is also
the Art Director and Mike one of the Art staff while not designing the card
game. My having moved 1200 miles away puts more strain on the "In house" art
staff. FASAhas not increased it's staff AT ALL to put out the CCG. It's being
done in addition to the rest of the schedule.

Unfortunately, there are going to be periods when Jim and Mike are too busy
actually getting the products out the door to hop online. It should clear up
soon...
