Re: [ARCHIVES] Overhaul complete

While we're on the topic of FT PBEM, I've found that I've sorely missed 
Indy's B5 games and deeply regret that the Man-Kra'vak Wars scenario 
didn't finish (I had a strikeboat swarm behind the Hu'man capital ships,

on the same vector and in range).

To that end I'm putting together a list of players and studying the 
vector movement spereadsheet.

I'll be running a Narn-Centauri fleet engagement, using FTFB rules and 
my B5 conversions

http://imperialdispatches.editthispage.com/fullthrust.

Scenario details aren't decided yet, but will likely be a Centauri raid 
on a Narn outpost near a gas giant.

Any interest ?
