You can buy it from the SDS, as a PDF file delivered via email (cost US$35) or
on disks (cost US$37; not entirely sure about postage here). You can also get
a printed copy, but it costs more and takes more time. After all, the monster
is some 400 pages... Not too surprising, if you've read Weber&White's "In
Death Ground", which covers roughly the first half of the
war :-/ Details can be found at the SDS homepage,
http://cd.murr.missouri.edu/sds/SF-main.html; follow the "products"
link.

I need some advice here:

In the past, I've avoided outright ads for Starfire and the SDS's products
since this list is devoted to Full Thrust. The above post wasn't intended
as an ad, either - it was meant as a defence of AoG (...yet another
small games producer...).

Jon (Tuffley, that is), is it OK with you if I notify the FT list whenever we
(SDS) publish new Starfire stuff? The rest of the list, what do you say?

Well...there *is* the Starfire mailing list (isn't there? it's still out
there, yes?? I took myself off it a while ago, before SDS acquired SF,
because I couldn't keep up with the volume :-/ ). But other than that,
it doesn't bother me any. One day I'll get back into SF again and will prolly
want to find the info, so...

(now if that wasn't any help, I don't know what is;)

Oerjan -

No, I've got no problem with this; of course, you could always mention FT on
the SF list now and again, in return...... <very big grin>

Oerjan thanks for the info. Its much appreciated. I personally don't mind
hearing about other SciFi wargames as long as theres no spamming involved. Not
to mention I gave up on the Starfire mailing list because of the volume of
mail.
