Alan's comments about  the 'dark side' of my beloved old SPI rules was
dead on target.  That said, I haven't had any trouble understanding
rules
for DS2 and while initially it took a few minutes to find things when I
was 'playing in my mind (as opposed to on the table)' it never was as
much trouble as DBR...	Maybe that's why I never picked up DBM.

Joe,  Perhaps you should come up with some real life incidents and
forward them to GZG.  Constructive critiques never hurt.  And there may
be some better way to do something.  Or you could just strong-arm Alan
into writing that index.  8^)

Mind you it doesn't hurt that the OU seems to claim buoys that were 
probably put there by the Illuminati. More surprising is the fact the 
Illuminati haven't corrected this behaviour, wonder what they're getting

out of it... ;)

True enough. Our sheets were mostly the key tables and some short 
snippets of rules. Keeping the reference on the entries just never 
occurred to me 'cause the rulebook itself is always laying right next to

it... but it sure would save time when we do have to look something up.

Similar experience with Dirtside. We also like the reference sheets 
cause we do not play as regularly as we would like, and it it allows us 
to forego the effort to memorize in detail and just relax and have fun.

I agree on both counts. One page is great - not too much detail, but 
enough to be useful. And page 17 does stand out in the midst of the rest

of the well contrived rules as something that seemed like "oh, no, we 
forgot to..."

I think it is an issue of the writing process. From experience when a 
group of us tried to collaborate on some rules many years ago much of 
the content flow was determined as things came to mind. Perhaps the 
items were related, perhaps they weren't. Later revisions would tend to 
adjust the latter but would have trouble with moving the former.But then

again that could have just been us :)

That sounds like a great figure for a Brin fan and someone that paints 
25mm figs just for fun. Anyone know of where any pics could be found?

Unless of course they're paced out by me (5'6") and then Derek (6'2")
tries 
to follow the instructions (we were doing a treasure hunt for the
kids)... 
the results were so off I started thinking about doing an SG scenario
where 
the untrained militia had to find the cache of weapons before the bad
guys 
got there ;)

I don't have the book with me, but I'm pretty sure they just get 36" 
instead of 24", but I'm sure these guys will correct me if I'm wrong ;)

That's right, ER salvos have a 36" range band while regular missiles
have a 24"

Also...

Both standard range and extended range salvos have one turn of endurance
under the standard rules.

Beth,

    You are correct. It's on page 12 of the Fleet Book in the section
labelled "Summary of Weapon Systems and Effects". Incidently, I stumbled
across your web site the other day. LOVED picture of the Jeanne d'Arc.
What
a wonderful paint job.

				Bob

Thanks. I'm not one for all grey ships - the fact my office window looks

out on the bright red Aurora Australis (Aussie Antarctic vessel) all
winter 
may have something to do with that ;)

Cheers

DS2 and SG2 guys (especially my British list-brothers who have a better
chance to have seen some of this stuff), take a gander at these and help
me
identify the vehicles/figures in question:

http://www.gtns.net/gzg/oldimages/mc-1.jpg   (what order codes? how big?
As
large as the older Heavy Gear minis? Or on a par with modern GZG-PA?)

http://www.gtns.net/gzg/oldimages/dsm-dfv-2.jpg  (what are the 3 VTOLs -
ignore the Ftr)

http://www.gtns.net/gzg/oldimages/dsm-dfv-1.jpg  (I assume the first one
on
the left here is the VT-51 Super Boxcar and the second one is the VT-40
Boxcar... but what are the 3 VTOLs and the last vehicle - which I
suspect of
being a VTOL cargo carrier of some type but I'm not sure - maybe a VT-36
flying pig?)

http://www.gtns.net/gzg/oldimages/dsm-dfk-1.jpg (the last 4 vehicles on
the
right?)

http://www.gtns.net/gzg/oldimages/dsm-1.jpg (SPG on the far left?)
