The giant Star Wars game is run by Sci-Fi supply out of Orlando (my
former
haunt) and the guys actually did some work for me on a project. I
actually
rammed the Star Destroyer with my Nebula Frigate, leading to it's
subsequent
destruction (My AND the Star Destroyers..) Quite a hoot. There was one
of
those annoying ***hole wanna-bees on the other side that had already
pissed
off half the con. We called in 8 Squads of B and X wing fighters on his
Imperial Patrol cruiser the First turn. Felt REAL good......
