otherwise. I'ld be keen to take a gander at it.

I suppose everyone on the Phoenix Command list would love nothing more
(game-related, anyway :) than PDFs of all the books, or even of just the basic
rules... It's been out of print for years and the company that published it is
out of business, either legally or de facto (I'm not sure) so you'll only get a
look at PCCS rulebooks if you happen to come across them somewhere.

I'd be happy to explain the basics of the system to you (contact me privately if
you're that interested in it :) but it would be impossible to go into enough
detail to let you play a game -- if only because of the large tables involved.

... and I thought he's asking for one of those ripped PDF from printed
books ;) I'm sooo unfair sometimes.

Arcllight,

That is what I really meant, but it doesn't bother me either way. I'ld just
like to take a gander at the tables and stuff. I've heard so much about how
nasty/realistic it is, I want to see for my own eyes the level of complexity
it has attained becoming (allegedly) realistic...
