Unfortunately, Stellar Conquest, being a "MetaGaming Classic", is
probably
only slightly easier to come by than a Pterodactyl skin Stradivarius
signed
by Elvis.  I was pleasantly surprised to see that FT list newcomer(?)
Winchell Chung, the man who designed the grim visage of the most
fearsome
fighting machine of the 21st Century yet still found time to maintain a
pretty spiffy 3d Starmap page (you guys looking for realism in your
space
campaigns could do a lot worse than visiting
http://www.clark.net/pub/nyrath/starmap.html), had written an article
for
General on the game.  What I was able to find on http://grognard.com/
didn't tell me much.  Does anyone have a lead on how to get a look at
this
system? 

Take care,
