Re: [OT] Suggested Sci-Fi

Niven and Pournelle's Footfall, Lucifer's Hammer and The Legacy of Herot
are 
all good reads and have some nice battles in them.  I have always wanted
to 
try and game out the final battle in Footfall.	"Allright humans you
have a 
smaller, less technologically advanced ship, but you have caught the
aliens 
napping.  Go get them.	Aliens, you have more ships but they are spread
out, 
your mothership's main drive is down for maintenance and you can not
afford 
to take to much damage as all of your women and children are on it. 
Survive 
long enough to get your drive on line and run.	Oh and humans if you
fail the 
aliens are going to drop enough rocks on Earth kill mankind."
