Well, I just got ahold of Survival Margin. Fascinating. Really.
Also the first piece GDW has done in a long time that I can unreservedly
give a "Two thumbs up" to. If for no other reason than Strephon's
private journal entries, both before and after the beginning of the
Rebellion. The questions it raises are intriguing, to say the least.
Plus, of course, the revalations about Norris's Seneschal...Could he
have been running things all these years? Or is the Conventional Wisdom
of 1201 correct? Noone will ever know, I suppose, unless someone does a
"The Empire Never Fell" Sourcebook, and explores the question...
Plus, it doesn't really deal with the holes in Hard Times, though it
plugs a few of them by implication....
Loren, you can tell Dave that at least one TMLer approved of SM
wholeheartedly.
