[MISC] Omega Warrior

Flagship Games, creator of "Mecha" is apparently selling a new 25mm SF 
skirmish game called "Omega Warrior".

OW appears to be very much in the Starship Toopers vein, with REALLY 
powerful Powered Armor -- the typical battle seems to have no more than
two 
or three PA suits on a side.  In one of the battle reports upon their
page, 
a 4 man squad of PA wipes out an 18 regular infantry without working up
a 
sweat.	There are not going to be dedicated figures as far as I can
tell, 
but they say that it can be used with any SF miniatures in existence. 
As a 
matter of fact, the battle that I mentioned above uses (and gives proper

credit to) GZG figures -- NSL PA vs. NAC regulars.  It looks
interesting, 
but I've never heard of it before.

They are also working on a generic space combat game called Starship!
and 
they will produce miniatures for it.  They are claiming that it will be
a 
true 3D environment, using their "Battlepoles".  I suspect that ships
will 
be resin, and a bit too big for FT, but you never know -- the pictures
seem 
to bear this out, though.
