Subject: [FT] Help: Planets and Gravity

	I'm glad there's a discussion going on about this right now
(though
I haven't been keeping up with it. It enables me to ask a question for a
scenario I've been thinking of building. I want to set a battle around a
pair of Roche worlds. They're a pair of giants ~20 MU diameter, semi-gas
planets. They co-orbit a center point with about 4 MU of space between
them.
htey probably need to be distorted egg shapes. The pair rotate a clock
facing every turn. 

	Kickers are: 
	1) I want an atmosphere in the space between them - the main
habitable part of the system.
	2) I'd	needa handle ofn the gravitatinal evvects of different
zones
around the pair. 

	If I get all that, I can set up a test PBeM scenario and perhaps
draw up a template for a live game table (It'd be nice to have something
to
un at ECC IV). ANy help would be appreciated.

	Noam
