Anything on this one yet?

Is there anything on when this one starts? I remember hearing John and some folks talk about this at Sheva Con last year? I want to kick some Postie ass?

I have to send Hunter and MJ some minor changes but otherwise it is in MJD's park. He has to find time to the one chapter and several minor sections that he agreed to handle otherwise it is ready for editing/artwork and typeseting.

I haven't followed this very closely, but I'm curious about what the world is going to be like and what the play is going to be like.

I mean, beyond the MI, most everyone who's met a Posleen has become Posleen supper.

And when the MI actually ENGAGE the Posleen, it, like, 200:1 ratio.

So, is combat going to be:

Tom: I'm going to fire on the Posleen advancing down the ridgeline.
GM: ok, roll D100
Tom: 73
GM: Good -- you just killed 73 Posleen. They're still advancing. What now?

So, I'm just curious what's being envisioned here.

Well the rules dealing with interactions between players and massed combat are some of the rules that Martin is going to work on since he has done rules along those lines before, just not with T20.

But you do have to remember that the back of the Posleen on Earth has been figuratively broken, so if you are dealing with a post lifting of the siege campaign then the threat level is very much reduced. To the point in most situations that combat against the Posleen can be survivable for those without ACS's.

I purposefully did not include the new suites or Oneal's suit. I plan on introducing the upgraded suite later on. I have speced out Oneal's suit but I am not sure if I will ever include it in a product. :)
You would have to ask John about that one. :)
