[geeks] Geeky Solaris question

I'm not so sure I want to rpeserve it as is. I'll be honest, I love the
worlds presented by both games, but I always thought that FASA wrote some
really bad gaming systems to go along with them.

Now I'm not so sure about mageknight either, but it has to be better than
shadowruns rulesystem

What I'm more worried about is the future of former TSR products now that
WOTC is out of business, and Hasbro Interactive is partially owned by
microsoft.

Nope.  =)

Have you heard what's happening to Battletech?  FASA is going under,
but WhizKids was buying it and Shadowrun to preserve it.  But it
turns out Whizkids is converting Battletech to their dippy MageKnight
game =(
