Just a few questions I thought I'd answer for you all:

}        What books do you base your designs on?  Just the Ref's Handbook?  I
}remember from an earlier posting that you used Book 8: Robots for bots, any
}other supplements like this you use?

Lesse:
Ref's Handbook

101 Vehicles
(has a few construction rules for adding weapons not in the Ref guide)

Hard Times
Primitive spacecraft

COACC
Aircraft (errata in challenge 36)

Book 8:  Robots
Brain construction and computing human equivalences
There's additional stuff for bots in 101 robots
Mainly I will construct a robot body using the Ref's Guide and then install
a brain from Book 8.  There are some devices and equipment in Book 8 that
are not in the ref's guide, when the same item is listed in both default to
the ref's guide.

Challenge 61
Vehicles TL-0 to TL 4

The Wet Navy stuff also appears in challenge, but I forget what issues
(53?, 54?, 60?)

I have gone back to Striker to find some items that were not in any
book after that to find the size and weight of things like damper boxes,
cranes, plows, nuclear weapons...

I have also gone back to JTAS 21 for missile design rules.
(But I incorporated book 8 brains for the missiles)

(Rob?  Have I left anything out?)

Next question:
}Who the *Bleep* is Karl Lagarfeld?

Women's clothes designer.  Picture a collection of tight skirts, leather
lingerie, and snake skin bikinis.  *THAT'S* Karl Lagarfeld.  |->
