Well, it has been a good 3 months since I last logged into this place.
It's nice to see that some of the old guys are still around
(Ratinox,Robert Watkins,Gurth and ofcourse Mr. Falk and Mr. Hayden, where
the hell has Damion gone to ?)

So can anyone tell me what's the latest news on FASA. From the archive it
became clear to me that the Aztlan book has reached us at last. Great, I
was Just planning a major run for my players down in yucatan.

What about the other goodies they promised us. Like Cybertech, I know
some people who just can't wait to clog their bodies up with new cyberware.
And what about that new book on CalFree State, or the one I have been
waiting for, Virtual Realitity's part Deux.



Now here's al little experiment I did this vacation. I was with three of
players in Ireland for the summer (Yes, I did bring Tor Na Nog along, but
I didn't use it. It's handy as a travel book though. "Look guys that's
supposed to be a very powerful magical site, according to FASA.", "Gee,
it just looks like rock to me, man."

Anyway I was ordered to think up some cool run, and do it quickly. As I
had no interest in doing another prepare-a-corp-army-and-we-will-nuke-em
sorta run. I designed this complex plot around three characters, They
designed the characters, I designed a sory around them.
I started with three charaters who were not allowed to know anything
about the others. So I played about four to five sessions with each of
them, before they met. Great for role-playing.
I don't have time to explain the entire tale that spinned them together
but it was a lot of fun. You should definetly try it some time.
Two of the characters knew of each others existence almost from the
beginning, but eventually only met for about one combat turn as one of
them came running out of a barn, recognized the other, said something
like "hello, how are you doing, sorry but I'm in a hurry." and ran off,
getting away just in time to take cover for the 1 kiloton bomb in the barn.

See ya guys later.
