Can anyone give me the low down on the problems FASA has been having with
artists and it's art dept.? I keep hearing vague references. Or if there
isn't a problem just remind me to come back down from La La land sometime
soon...

I don't think there's any major problems at the present time - art director
Jim Nelson left earlier in the year and was replaced by already-FASA-staff
Fred Hooper. I'm sure they're under the usual time crunch, especially with
trying to get the production schedule ramped up to a book a month for SR
and still supporting their other games, but I don't think they have any
outstanding "problems" right now.

Book a month? It's my November pre-order, yet another month with NADA,
Nothing from FASA.
