Several Fan Projects Kicking Off

• Sean "Knytemare" Wilde has just completed a preliminary test run of his new game, Terror Nova. He's now looking for people to actually begin playing normally. Terror Nova is a strategy/role-playing play by email game requiring daily participation. You can find out more about it here.
• Eder Silva, working with Dreddnott and Nob Akimoto, are working on a Wing Commander total conversion of X-Wing Alliance. They anticipate it featuring over ten flyable craft, dozens more of unflyable craft, lots of missions, story taking place during the late 2660s, and nice sightseeing fromrange from Perry Naval Base to Earth. Their website should be up within two weeks.
• And Steve has let us know that the Wing Commander Lost Universe project is back on track. It should also have a website with information soon.

Grain Store Goes with a Bang!

Zany Happenings columnist Japel Hoohar reports. Well, disaster-lovers, I've got a dooy for you this month, this time from the planet of Janus IV. It seems that a fire broke out at the Delors Grain, Salt and Butter Depository - some kid playing with Incendi-tubes apparently. Anyways, the fire raged out of control pretty quickly, the Butter store having gone up first, when, all of a sudden, these really loud explosions start taking place. Everybody ducks for cover, only to be showered in little white balls: the fire had reached the Gran section, which had already been coated in molten Butter, and the whole reserve had turned into popcorn in one go. Good news for Vidflix lovers, bad news for the now-starving population.
