That's really nice to hear. I wrote the Dilgar Imperium book (as it was then), but it looked like it wasn't destined to see the light of day due to release schedules and other priorities. The fact that it's out there in Deconstruction is great, and something I'm very happy about. There was so...

Hi there Ghost Dancer, it's been a while since I posted too. Reason is I'm waiting for news about something, but I digress... Sector 420 would have been either far away from the inhabited systems or difficult to get to (possibly because of hazardous jump routes). It has no known colonies or...

Blimey, I take a break from the boards and everything's gone hatstand. In all my dealings with you in the early S&P days you were always quick to respond to any question I had with helpful comments where appropriate, and for an external writer such things are a godsend. All the best for the...

I took a peek at a copy of the RPG yesterday evening. It's a shame for the guys at BI, because the book really looks good. Artwork is great as usual (not something GW normally has a problem with) but it appears well laid out and presented. Character generation in particular stood out, with a...

I think Ultima might be really difficult to get, but would be fantastic. I played Underworld 2 and Serpent Isle probably as much, if not more, than any other PC game. If it was between an Ultima RPG and Fallout though, Fallout would win for me. For some reason, Hellgate:London was one of my...

Well, you can have a hint from me. Fallout was one of the greatest computer RPGs I have ever played, right up there with Baldur's Gate and Serpent Isle. The 1950's inspired atmosphere made it stand out from other post-apocalyptic RPG's. Fallout only covered the United States (West Coast IIRC...

I'd probably say Midnight on the Firing Line too. It introduces the concepts of the Earth-Minbari War, Raiders, the conflict between the Narn and the Centauri, telepaths and the Vorlons. And, of course, Spoo. Chobbly

And it is... the trailer's there on the main site now. Just go to Main Menu and click on the 'Lost Tales' tab. Chobbly

We don't play any more, but my group loved the B5 CCG. We went to some Tournaments in Birmingham too. Whilst not a fan of CCG's particularly, it really had a good feel of the show, and despite some of the cards being a little bit over the top it was really fun to play. Having four or five...

That was one of the reasons why I thought I'd find a copy of the book and see if it was any good. Just over half way through, and it is enthralling reading - and more than a bit disturbing, mainly because it's played straight down the line. Apparently JMS is adding in the character of the...

Ouch, LBH - I think that's tremendously brave saying that you'd put Ted Chang anywhere. :shock: Surely Ted Chang would go wherever the heck he likes? Chobbly (running for cover)

There is also some stuff on them, way back in Signs and Portents 23. Chobbly.

Just got a message saying that the next volume, number 10, will be out at the end of the month (Feb). Plus, there's a couple of new images up on The Lost Tales page (here). A new logo, and a new render of Babylon 5 that's got me grinning from ear to ear, don't know about anyone else... :D...

I know what you mean, but it might depend on when (and hopefully If) the SpaceQuest SRD comes out. Still, potentially good news - thanks Matt. It'll be interesting to see what settings end up using SpaceQuest. Chobbly
