The Miniatures Page (a great website with lots of info) has put up a page to
vote on your favorite space rules, Full Thrust is included. With the crowd on
this list, I thought that there would be a lot of willing voters. It just went
up today so there are no results yet.

well, i just voted; as of 1621 GMT (the clocks just changed, dammit)
29/3/1999, FT has 64% of the votes, and B5 wars 15%. i don't think B5W
is the same as EFSB, but if by some chance it is, this means 79% voted for a
Tuffleian system. either way, way to go mr jon!

I'm for the derivative theory; less to spread around the 'competition'
against oneself! :-)

On the "Comments or suggestions" question I wrote "Canonize Jon Tuffley!".
Do you think that was too over-the-top? :)

Dosen't he need to have done two miracles for that? I can only think of
one, staying afloat in a cruel minatures/gaming market where the bad
guys seem to rule.

So is the Pope a wargamer? (the Bishop of Rome is just a bit nessecary in
canonizing someone, after all...)

Maybe that's were the Pope has all his divisions - in lead and pewter!
(ref: Stalin's famous "How many divisions has the Pope?" comment, after he was
told the Pope objected to something Stalin had done...)

I think it's _Ogre_ that has Vatican Gaurd Ogres, in purple & yellow
livery w/ big crosses!

You've got it correct... or at least by the pictures in the Ogre Miniatures
rules. I always wondered what an OGRE would look like in more cheery,
festive colors like red and green...   but then again that's too close
to GWs preferred patterns. Besides I'm not going to be the one to suggest it
to an AI with the firepower of any Mk ? OGRE - just think of what it
might do if it doesn't take to the suggestion.

Thank you all in advance for not minding the OT nature. We will return you to
your regularly scheduled discussion involving something about BFG in a
moment...  ;-)

hmm. in the same way that 'beatify' can mean nominate for
