Hi Robert,

now is three days that I don't receive any post. I still
have to figure if there are some problems on our national
mailer or our local system manager :). But, first of all,
while the mailer was down, two days ago, the listserver
has still me in the list?

You can reply to me either vai the internet or via decnet
at ASTRTS::MARCUCCI. Hope it works...

So, now for the funny things. The TOME is really a great
piece of net.book. Maybe the last versions of the articles
can be made ftp available somewhere, so one has not to
search for the latest errata... :)

If you want, I'm available for an overall formatting of
the TOME and for a distribution in postscript format
(or WinWord/RTF).

I have designed a new weapon, called the Ares M41 Assault
Rifle. It has a 45 clip and a minigrenade launcher, and
gives a 8M damage. If you have seen Aliens 2, you know of
what I'm speaking..... A nice ad (like SSC ones) is available.
What format is preferred around the list?

Uh, a last thing. Before a twhap, have someone already
though about a flame-thrower? One of my players has
already made stats...

Bye and thanks

i think there are stats for a flamethrower in one of the NAGEE mags on
anon. ftp@ teetot.acusd.edu (pub/Beezlebub/Role-Playing/Shadowrun)...there
is also mention of both flamethrower and chain saw in one of the ka*ge
issues...will try to find the time to dig it up tonight...

If your mailer went down, you very likely were deleted from th list to
prevent a net.crashing mailing loop. Resubscribe.

I'm working on this. At this point there is no FTP.
