I stand corrected! The Book 4 Abstract System is nice and sussinct! A&A is actually MORE complex. This would work real nice, and could get like high stakes vegas!

I will run a few tests. I think my contessa's troops need to tangle with some Aslan... Abstractly!

I would like to comment on how cool makng a character is at this level. The resources available from generators, and ship programs like High Guard Shipyard, really are making the concept stage come together quick.

I generated Shushaka from the World Builder software on Heaven and Earth, and it is, well, rad. It is a Binary system with the last orbit a planetoid belt. It has two moons around a Gas Giant, that according to the data, one is 50km diameter, and yet, is home to 800,000,000 people! (Population 8). I picture a moon held together with bolts, and a huge percentage of that population in orbit. Some sort of Miners Guild headquarters?

Also, who is the flippin genius that made the "V" Vilani Language page? It is possibly the coolest bit of mythical language making I have ever seen! I am 100% convinced!

A linguist (or language hobbyist) from the TML designed the Vilani grammar in 1998. It is pretty cool, and seems difficult to learn (on par with a real language, I suppose).

I may print this out and learn it...
