Hey Dark, yes the information about the ne wgame has me extremely excited as well more rpglike and more character/npc/crew interaction and ability to develop, VERY cool. We certainly dont have access to anything like this at this point. I will post htis later today at applevis (dust off my account there). I dont use facebook or twitter at this point but hopefully applevis will give this some attention as well. Thanks again, Greetings, Anouk, On 18 Sep 2014, at 12:42, dark <d...@xgam.org> wrote:
