RE: [DS]Reason for going to DS2

I suppose I should answer my own question.

This is similar to why I became a GZG'er.  A friend introduced me to 
battletech.  I loved the idea of futuristic combat on far-flung worlds,
but 
absolutely HATED the damage resolution ssytem, as well as the
ridiculously 
limited range of the weapons.  Plus I wanted something that would play 
faster on a larger scale, and allow for any political
factions/background I 
wanted.  So I picked up DSII.
