Amazing how the Russian economy which is only equivlent to Switzerlands
in
size could have such an effect on world markets.
I think I can forget about that new pc now. That'll teach me to dabble
in
equity.
B5 Wars holds little interest for me apart from the minuatures. Even
then
I'd begrudge giving AOG any of my money considering the way they seem to
have abandoned customers in Europe. The latest update on their site is
now
telling us that European availabilty is coming soon.
One interesting link from their site is the B5 ships painting page.
Some
very nicely done ships. As well as lots of well designed Ship control
sheets for the EFSB.
