Paranoia cardstock traitors?

[ReaperWolf]

Long, long ago, West End Games produced a Accessory Pack which included a GM screen, forms (in triplicate), and a bunch of double sided cardstock miniatures depicting commies, troubleshooters, high programmers, citizens, bots, scorched/traitors, etc. The cardstock minis were just black and white which allowed you to color the minis with crayon, marker, or colored pencil. Any chance Mongoose could produce a bunch of these and either include them with a printed product or make them available for free or modestly priced download. I realize Paranoia isn't a wargame and minis aren't exactly required for play but some easily printed & colored miniatures would be spiffy.

Also, on a more serious note. Am I the only one who was disappointed with Flashbacks II? The material was terrific, as I've come to expect, but I found the page count to be out of proportion with the sticker price. Now I know the book is hardcover but really, is it necessary to produce every book in hardcover? I think not. Rumor has it Stuff II, weighing in 'round 96 pages, will also be hardcover. Mongoose, please, if the book has fewer than 128 pages make it softcover.

Sincerely,

Flashbacks 2 exists? Excellent. I wish people told me these things... Sorry you felt a disconnect between content and price.

To my knowledge, there are no plans to reproduce the old West End Games Cardstock Commies (TM) or anything from the Excessory Pack. Mongoose does sell actual PARANOIA miniatures, if that helps. Of course, the game doesn't require miniatures to play, but if you remember the West End days then you already knew that.
