If curious, here's the comic strip that John Carter and Barsoom appeared in:

Here's my attempt: OnGarde! OnLine EnGarde Combat Script

Anyone interested in running it - select your opponents by the pop-downs, then click both the "?" buttons (to generate random sequences, unless you want to specify your own...), then click "Start". It can be amusing to see the action described. To continue after round one, click the "?"s again to top-up the sequences, and "Start" again. To re-start, Refresh the screen.

Sorry to say this, but nothing is really happening. I'm not on my usual computer, so i don't know if it's a problem with this computer or what (it's running Windows 98).

However, I did order the role playing game. I can't wait to see what that's like.

Hi Jason. How's Interplanetary coming along?

It's coming along well enough - a couple of speed bumps in June and early July have caused me to ask for an extension to turn it at the end of August instead.

My schedule has opened up immensely, though, and I'm going to see about finishing it before then if at all possible.

Either way, it gives me more time to save up my money

How is it looking? August or September?

No news. Still writing it. It'll then go to a limited playtest/edit cycle, then to Chaosium where it goes at the tail end of a very long list of things to be published.

After that: art, cover, editing, and layout... then printing.

My guess is Christmastime or thereabouts for in-store or .pdf release.

[Trifletraxor]

Poorly phrased question from my side. I was thinking of which month you think you will be submitting it to Chaosium, not when they will be releasing it.
