<Anybody have any ideas on the Ilelish, or Sylean cultures?> I might
have some write-ups on them (well, actually I do, but I'm not sure how much
they deal with the culture offhand).
Paveway,
<I shall start throwing the odd alien into the TML for people to peruse
as well as a few more whinges on what I don't like about the MT universe.>
YES...YES..YES..I could definitely use seeing some neat nifty alien stuff, I
never have enough (and if suitably written up would like to publish it in my
fanzine on Aliens in MT, critters would be real nice too).
<A good set of books to read to get an idea of 'good' xenobiology and
'convincing' aliens are the Uplift series by David Brin. It is from these
books that I think the inspiration for the Solomani GenAssist programs were
taken. The Uplift universe was rather well adapted to the GURPS system some
while back (with David Brin himself doing the alien generation rules).>
Yes, the Uplift series did have an impact on the Solomani write-up for
MTA2 (a rather large part initially if I recall).
Perkins,
Apologies accepted (figured being busy was part of it). Glad to be 'back'.
Micheal Glew,
Got the letter, was forwarded, but no response as of yet (probably in part
because of GEN-CON, and possibly because they'll snail mail you).
