For those who haven't had a change to look, Ndege's work on the Thuerdank (I
think that's the NSL ship) is pretty good, and his planetary maps are also
pretty spiffy. Something like those would be
great for campaigns of a high-level planetary metagame (Star Legions?
we need a name for this planetary invasion level GZGverse concept) or for at
least background in SG2 and DS2. And if you happen to be one of
the True Believers (the players of old Pre-Gurps Traveller), you'll
really like them!
Anyway, here's a list kudo, and I'm sure other members will echo my
sentiments. The post in question was a day or so ago, if anyone wants to
backtrack and take a second glance. Well worth the look.

OAB: Orbital Assault Brigade
FMD: Full Metal Dropship (which would fit neatly in with Full Metal Anorak and
Full Metal Codpiece, but we'd need a "FMB" first. Maybe Full Metal Babe, for
which we could use the Gentlemen's Collectibles and the Sisters of Wrath?)
Those are the only TLA's (three letter acronyms) I can come up with at the
moment.

Actually, unless you actually say them as a word (I don't, I just spell them
out letter by letter), they're actually TLI's (three letter initializations).
It may be useful to note that TLA is a TLI.
Just injecting a bit more confusion,

You did a map of Santa Maria? Cool - that planet's my project/invention

it's a partly-Hispanic NAC world. Check out a bunch of information at:

(if it's there - freeservers has been acting up lately, it seems...)
There's a rather crude first-draft map available, but I may steal yours
and add stuff to it instead...
