I'm sorry gentlemen, but this smacks way too much of SFB. I got out of 
that
game because of complexity like that. It allows for too many rules 
lawyers
and loophole searchers.

As you watch your screens, the space before you begins to shimmer, and, 
like a snake shedding its skin, the stars peel back to reveal a Romulan 
cruiser exiting cloak.	It hails you........

Hi all.  Normally I just lurk, taking in the discussion and snagging 
things I find useful.  What a prolific bunch you are!  My reason for 
dropping cloak is that I agree with schoon about the complexity of SFB, 
for it is the same thing that drove me to FT.  I've been considering 
converting SFB to FT, hopefully to have something up on my web site 
before too long.  Would anyone here be interested in contributing or 
testing?  If so, please let me know.

Thanks.  Execute cloak.
