My last post for the day (someone else should get a chance to
speak....). Reminds me of a game (PBEM) advertised in old dragon
magazines. The picture was of a BB firing a city with beam batteries.
The caption read "In 2183, Excommunication is a Harsh Punishment".
Don't remember anything else, but the image of religious zealouts
backed by hi-tech weapons of genocide had me thinking....
