I started to reply, but realized how off-topic it was going. PLEASE STOP. The_Beast PS. Unless you have a REALLY interesting scenerio, of course. ;->=

Sorry, Donald, I didn't make myself clear. I'm having some difficulties with Lotus Notes on being able to reply with PARTS of relevant posts. I just meant a discussion on Saddam Hussein and his activities, without a particular scenerio in mind, the way SFB had a Falklands scenerio, would have been too rough to handle. My own take on superships, while they've been mentioned in FT and MT, is that they, like super guns, and movement plotted from way off-table, may be pushing the system outside it's design parameters. On the other hand, I'm still gonna run those three Superior SGD's against regular ships with some very special rules. We're suppose to push, prod, experiment, and stretch. I have Jon's word on it. ;->= The_Beast Donald Hosford <hosford.donald@acd.net> on 01/11/99 04:01:44 PM Please respond to gzg-l@CSUA.Berkeley.EDU To: gzg-l@CSUA.Berkeley.EDU cc: (bcc: Doug Evans/CSN/UNEBR) Subject: Re: It's gone OT!
