I'll see what I can do. E-mail is out of the question as I use a
offliner which mainly is used against BBS's. And using it up against
Internet properly is impossible. I can however try to put them up at a
FTP site. I haven't done that before, as I'm quite new to the net. So
any instructions would be appreciated.
I doesn't have the stats of the sector spinward of Gvurrdon. I have been
trying to get those for more than 2 years, but the sector has been
changing hand in HIWG a few times, and I do not know who's holding that
position at the moment.

As I read it we got quite similar perception about Thirz Empire and
Society of Equals (SoE). But in my campaign Thirz has given back some of
the worlds, as they became unruly under their domination. However they
kept a few. At the moment SoE eyes the build up of forces along the
border to Thirz suspiciously. They do both share border with the wilds
close by. And the zoo and Regency are worried that a shooting war might
errupt. This might lead to that their borders will be poorly defended
against the Virus as the forces are drawn to the front.
