Steve Cole reports:
This was a week of steady work on current projects. We continue to collect reports on the Gorn Master Starship Book (easy piece #1) and Merchants of the Federation (easy piece #2). We have been hunting down details for the Star Fleet Index (easy piece #3). After some file translation problems were resolved, we began making serious progress on A Call to Arms: Star Fleet Book 2 (easy piece #4). Jean finished the complete revision of the GURPS Prime Directive core rulebook (easy piece #5) but there are numerous checks, edits, and nitpicks to go before it is ready for Steve Jackson Games.
We released Hailing Frequencies and Communique #164 on the 13th.
