I think they also made another book because I have one titled _The Desert Shield Fact Book._ Again it does not have any game material, just information that anyone (gamers and non-gamers alike) can have in their hand when watching the news at the time. BTW, will we ever going to see the _Twilight RPG_ make a comeback soon, preferably OGL- or d20-based? _______________________________________________ Ogf-l mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.opengamingfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/ogf-l
