No speculation: Shelve nothing, It's Gone.

I recently (within a few months) received a (delayed) response from
Mike Mulvilhil (sorry if it is spelled wrong). He was repling to an
inquiry that i had had about the SR Compurter game. He had said that
it had gotten "swallowed up in a 'merger' between FASA and another
company" (he declined to name Microsoft.) Unfortuanately, just two
days before I joined the new list, I deleted that email from my
folders, have come up with no reason why i would need to keep it. Oh,
well. Whether Microsoft may or may not have a program like it in the
making is still up in the air, but, unfortunately, SR: Assassins is
dead. So says the Shadowrun Line Developer.
