Space Weirdo’s: News You Can Use

Doesn’t look like this project needs my help.  As I type this they have $1,500 raised out of a $100 ask.  But you might be interested in it, and that’s enough  for me to spread the word about this lo-rez independent sci-fi skirmish ruleset.     From the KickStarter...
