I'm *not a lawyer*, and thus you *shouldn't believe me*, but as I understand
the copyright law, it is perfectly legal to make a copy for personal use of
a work which is (1) out-of-print, and (2) unavailable at a reasonable
price.  Thus, if you (Adrian) can't find a copy of the Striker rules at one
of the places suggested on the list, you shouldn't feel guilty about copying
it.

Somebody should just try to get GDW's permission to photocopy the thing --
if they don't plan ever to publish it again, why should they mind?  (Oh, I'm
sure you creative souls will all think of good reasons -- it's just a
rhetorical question :-).
