I was just wondering. What was the source for all the stuff about Aus-
tralia/New Zealand in the timeline? I just was wondering, I'm trying to get as
much information on it as I can possibly get...

Thanks a lot.

I can't give you a specific place, but John told me that he
compiled the list from a whole bunch of places, not limited to, but
including the following: Shadowrun supplements, Shadowrun adventures,
magazine articles in Dragon, Challenge, and White Wolf, Shadowrun novels,
and Kage.
John has also now entered all the information from the Germany
Sorcebook. I'll get the updated version when i go home for spring break in
a couple of weeks. By the way, John wishes me to write the following
disclaimer to be attached to the timeline: "The person who collected all of
this information together did not write any of it, nor does he make any claim
to have. All copyrights remain with the origional owners. This list is for
public use only, and is not intended to generate profit in any way, nor to

for Gods sake, play nice. Your mileage may vary."

Probably <<GACK>> Ka-Ge magazine. It had an article on Australia awhile
back.

Hmm...would you ask him about the Australia stuff when you see him?

I'm kindof considering making a quick Australia supplement for the
NAGEE (CONSIDERING, be warned), but I'll need as much information as I can get
for it. That's why I was wondering...

Thanks.

Obi Wan:
Be aware that FASA has allegedly already lined up a guy down here in Australia
to build an Australian supplement. In addition, he has produced a small 3 part
supplement in a local magazine called Australian Realms, which is partly based
on the novels but mostly on local knowledge etc.

Hmm...I should take a look at that thing.

And I somehow don't believe that FASA can get anything going...
