Re: The Elder Worm homeworld That it does. I can't take credit for remembering it, though. There are only so many places it could have been, and that was the only one I could find. As LL says, it's only a paragraph. Hope it helps!

Re: The Elder Worm homeworld Could it have been Galactic Champions page 88?

Re: Jorune HERO For anyone interested, there is a Yahoo group dedicated to Jorune here. It's not overly active, but one of the participants is Joe Coleman, who knew Amy and Andrew Leker and Miles Teeves (the game creators) personally. Just don't ask him about trying to get the game updated or published again... He spent a lot of time trying to do that but was blocked at every turn; now it's something of a sore spot.

Re: Global Guardians status? Thanks, SS. I thought that might be the case, though what surprised me most was that one of the campaign GMs also hadn't heard anything. The campaign was relatively slow-moving, and by the time I realized I hadn't heard anything in a while, the web site must have already been back to normal.

Re: Global Guardians status? OK, that would explain it, though I'm surprised not to have heard anything about it. Thanks!

This question is mainly directed to Worldmaker, as I'm not sure the GG mail server is working, and I don't know how to reach him any other way. I've been playing a character in the GG universe for a few months now, but as of a month ago, I stopped receiving all messages from GG, not only from the game but also from the chat list (the only one I'm subscribed to). One of the campaign GMs said he had the same problem, and with other GG lists too. Is everything OK with with GG universe and its server?

Re: Generation Ship Campaigns Late last year I ran a campaign like this, using Metamorphosis Alpha heavily as a source. It was post-apocalyptic, and not only did the PCs (who were mutants) have to fend off a growing horde of one of the mutant races, they had to save their "level" when these same mutants broke into one of the level control centers and made off with the chronometric sequencer, the device that controlled many time-related functions, including the rising of the "sun". The campaign was a great success, and we only stopped because one of the players wanted to try a fantasy campaign. We may get back to it one day. While MA is long out of print (the initial version came out just after the original D&D, and it's had I think three versions since), it's currently being resurrected, last I heard. The original author, Jim Ward, who also later worked on Gamma World, was working on a new version, as people were still playing it nearly thirty years after it was originally published. Fast Forward Games (http://www.fastforwardgames.com) has more info, and another very good MA resource is http://www.metamorphosisalpha.com.

Re: PA World Questions In addition to the link posted, you may find the PA Forge site at http://www.geocities.com/paforge/ and its brand new associated Yahoo group useful. The group is only about a week old but is already quite active. I recently ran a 4th ed. adventure with some new RPGers using Metamorphosis Alpha as a backdrop -- PA on a lost generation colony starship. It was quite a success. Since then we've upgraded to 5E and are doing a fantasy campaign, but we'll probably venture back to the Warden or some other PA setting sooner or later. Daryl
