  1. Speaking of lost space stations, after your earlier post mentioning Space: 1999, I was reminded to return to my run through of Series 1 using the order suggested by Andrew Kearley & I just got to "Dragon's Domain" ... truly terrifying television.

    (Also, it was your post about the "space spider" that caused me order The Arduin Eternal Bestiary and Treasures Book.)

  2. Thanks for the reminder Rainswept, I love,love, Space 1999 and Dragon's domain is absolutely a favorite of mine. Andrew Kearly's order is the time line I personally use for the show. And you might want to check out today's blog entry where we go through an under appreciated resource for Space 1999 rpging.
    Emperor's Choice are going through a major reorganization right at the moment,I don't have all of the details of this but please be patient for your copy of that classic and wonderful rpg product. That is unless you ordered it from an independent retailer such as Noble Knight or the like. Its one of the crown jewels of my Arduin collection. Which I will soon be returning to over the next day or so with the Dark Corner blog. Cheers my friend thanks for the comment.
