Wombat, Re: "Tales of Arabian Nights" game, coincidentally that is a product I've been looking for (the West End Games version)! (I saw it once, but it slipped through my fingers . . . ) Is the second edition that you worked on soon-to-be-in-print or already out of print (since I'm certain it isn't in print right now)? But yes, alas, it is true--as of old, the Pyramid is built by slave labor for the benefit of one man! Can't complain about "truth in advertising" here! And have you seen "Fading Suns"? =mantis=

The English version of the second edition of Tales of the Arabian Nights is, unfortunately, in limbo right now. A German edition should be forthcoming in 1999. Perhaps I will publish a samizdat translation of the rules and components as an accessory....

The first-draft material for GURPS New Sun--is that still available on the SJGames website?

No, I haven't. Do you recommend it, or do you just recommend it as a curiosity? Wombat, a.k.a. Kevin Maroney kmaroney at crossover.com Kitchen Staff Supervisor, New York Review of Science Fiction http://ebbs.english.vt.edu/olp/nyrsf/nyrsf.html
