[trader jim]

Hunter - does mark still have his old original draft material? i.e....hand written notes, first drafts ect, ect,??? I would REALLY like to see pics posted on the site of the OLD stuff!!!...just for fun!!!..post it kinda like the TRAVELLER MUSEUM!!!...good clear close ups so we all can see and dicuss ist finer points!!!,
maybe change the pics and material now and then, i think others would be interested also....

Do any others agree...would you all like to see some of this material?????

also...where are some of the original PLAY TESTERS??? and what are they doing now???

Now that IS a cool idea! C'mon, Hunter, you must have some of your handwritten screed lying about! Scan it in!

Have you guys seen the FFE Classic Games reprint? Great stuff there, including hard-drawn playtest maps for Imperium and the never-published Imperium sequel, handwritten notes for "roleplaying" rules that never made it into Imperium, cover art for a never-issued second edition of Striker, all kinds of good stuff (plus Marc Miller anecdotes to go along with them). I'd love to see more 'peeks behind the curtain' like these, and it might make a nice feature for the (otherwise pretty bland) FFE Official site.

Gee, I missed that bit; I'll have to look at the book again later. I did like the bit about Darth Vaders' fighter counter. And here I always thought that that was just a typo.

I wouldn't mind hearing some commentary about the early adventures [ADV 1-3, DADV 1-2]. I'd be interesting to see CANON PATHS NOT TAKEN.

The only reason I call it a 'roleplaying' element is because that's how MWM describes it in the caption of the picture.
