Subject: Jovian Chronicles and B5 Wars Minis:

Hello All:
	I wanted to get this out sooner, but since I've been working at
both of
my jobs the last few days, I just now have access to my computer.
	Well, last Tuesday night was a hum-dinger for me.  After weeks
of
waiting, my game store finnally got a hold of some B5W minis. 
YEAH!!!!   They are just as detailed as everyone says they are.  I
picked up a couple of packs of Starfuries for my upcoming EA fleet (for
use in both B5W and FT).  
	They also got the Jovian Chronicles in as well.  I've been
waiting for
this as well.  The rules look very cool, and the Vector thrust system
they use bears a striking resemblence to the rules in the freeware game
"LNL."	The exos and the starships are also really nice and I'm glad to
hear that they will be producing minis of the ships.  I especially liked
the JSS Valient (which BTW looks kind of like an Omega Class
Destroyer.).
	However, my main problem with the game is that the ships are
sooo big
that you have to handle each section of the ship as a seperate target
with it's own stats.  That tends to make the record keeping a little
large.
	I also played a game of Flintloque... got my Orc arse kicked. 
Choosen
Man Purkins got his blummin head shot off with a Dark Elf cannon
nick-named "Carmilita."

Later,
Mark
