That's pretty close; yes, "The FMA System"  is the name we gave to the
game
engine of opposed polyhedral dice rolls, alternate activations etc. that
forms the core of both SGII and DSII.
And yes, we are using FMA as the overall title for the skirmish game
system
(already "previewed" in rough playtest form to the lucky denizens of
this
list!!), which will be man-to-man level (as opposed to the squad-based
level of SGII). FMC is a proposed (and partially tested) fantasy version
of
FMA.
FMA will see print as soon as it can be done, which means sometime after
FTFB2 and the Scenario Book (and either before or after FT3!).

LET ME SAY THREE WORDS: BUGS DON'T SURF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you promised us BDS since the SG2 rules, when FMASkirmish is a
latecomer
as is the latest generation of FT stuff, the least you could do is make
a 
pretense that one day you'll gift us with the product.....

Jeez. Or is this just not popular enough to be commercially viable?
