Don't worry. They only just started work on it. Someone asked for things we
wanted fixing, clarifying and changing....

It broke list-bulk records...

(one of the things suggested by quite a few people was to bring back
variable staging.....)

So what's the deal this time, they merging 2nd ed. sourcebook

Basically, I think it's going to be SHRII + VRII + RBB2 + clarifications and
rules tidying.....

(Although it'll only have the RULES from VRII and RBB2, none of the
equipstuff, and probably in brief).

It's not scheduled for a year or two..... Someone said 1998, so 1999 it is
then....
