DOn't get me wrong with my earlier statement - I have *no* problems
discussing
the B5Wars game with you folks (I've come to know quite a number of you
through
my half dozen FT/PBeM games and have a lot of respect for your opinions
on
things). I just wanted to emphasize(?) that Tom's advertisement for his
upcoming scenario was posted here, and this is primarily an FT
enviroment. I
would expect that most who sign up from here want to do the FT-variant
game.
But I also agree with your above statement, Jerry. Which is why I think
B5W
has potential to become something on its own. Given time.

(btw, happy b-day to Rob Pruden, commander of the EAS POURNELLE in my
last
FT/B5 PBeM game ;-)
