       No, it's just a matter of fitting everything in, in its proper place.

<<  Yeah...we're slippery that way.... >>

Classic jms understatment.  Slippery as in a pin-ball game jazzed up with
silicone spray...

      Actually, the best "slippery" line came from Australian artist Peter
Ledger, who before his passing helped visualize the designs of B5: "Slippery as
a bucket of monkey's foreskins."

      It's the kind of hideous line that just keeps you up at night, trying to
pretend you never heard it....

Agreed!  And what about that intriguing new central logo?

      The logo in the center of the new poster is the one that now hangs in the
Council chambers for the League of Non-Aligned Worlds.

Sb: #B5 game?
Fm: JUANMA BARRANQUERO

In the PBMGAMES forum I've read that a guy from Amarillo Design Bureau --a
games firm that sells the excellent tactical spaceship wargame Star Fleet
Battles-- has "gone because he received a better offer (to do a B5 game)".

Is it true? There's a B5 wargame in the works? Or is that just an off-hand
reference to the RPG by Chameleon Eclectic?


(Please please please pretty please say "yes"!!!!!)
