I don't know how many of you are HIWG members, but those of you who are
will by looking through the back issues of AABP see that I have made
several changes to the Gvurrdon sector. Rukh and Anti-Rukh are long
gone. The new troublespots are the border between Thirz Empire and
Society of Equals. Anyone interested in getting data for Gvurrdon in TNE
please mail me a DD disk and I'll return it with whatever I got. (couple
of 100K) This information has been mailed to GDW. (And it would be nice
if you let me know that you have received it and looked at it [hint,
hint]). HIWG members may get this from Clay Bush.

I don't think Regency would foster instability in Gvurrdon. If whats
remaining of Gvurrdon falls to the Virus, it just mean that Regency have
to commit more resources to protect that border. And likewise with
Zhodani. In my campaign Thirz Empire is Zhodani backed, while what's
left of Thoengling are Imperial backed. And the zoo needs the stability
much as Regency needs it.
