Re: [FH]

Brian,

Didn't see it - slick Flash-based website, too. Sure, something like
that,
but without Eddie Murphy! :>

***It's silly but has some interesting shots of smugglers dens on the
moon
and travel sequences.

I was actually thinking of several anime graphic novellas I've read, set
on Mars & other places, for the tone of my Martian musings, plus the
details of the GZGverse - ie early FTL aborting in-system colonization.

***Yeah I've seen some good ones like "Big Wars" set on a slightly
terraformed Mars.

The half-arsed terraforming - "just enough to cause trouble" - was
inspired by Kim Stanley Robinson's "Red Mars" trilogy; at one point they
have a near-global sandstorm that lasts about five Terran years, so I
thought, "What if terraforming resources had been cut just after that
point, so that monster storms became a regular feature, not just a bug?"
(In the novel the resources are there, so the terraformed Mars
stabilizes
again...)

***That would be an intriguing place to game. You can go in a myriad of
directions here.From law enforcement to Mars-ees rebelling backed by 
various major or minor powers.
