Kewl! Let the games begin...

Hopefully Mike will be subscribed soon. Although I don't actually know what
time-zone he's in...

I'm actually quite looking forward to working with another GFX developer.
Although it's a bit scary not doing everything (I don't mean that
negatively) as I've always been the 'solo' artist. But, I figure he must be
pretty good to offer to help, and he does sound like a bit of an expert on
the subject matter. Maybe this saves me some research? ;) 

As for keeping myself busy; well, I figure we have to now we're getting
interest. The easier we make it for other people to join, the more interest
we'll get. We need this information between ourselves, and it allows Mike to
pick what he is most interested and capable of doing. The bible just gives a
framework for the styling of the game that is in place through my work, so
he should have no problems following it. Basically it's just the
lightsource, format, scales and hex sizes. I'll probably knock this up at
lunch and send it to you. Maybe it should be included on the homepage?

Speaking of the civil homepage. I might spend some time on it over the
weekend. Nothing special, just add a little color, a logo and some bits. I
seem to recall you having an early design document that listed the troop
types and required terrains, movement penalties etc. If this is up-to-date,
forward me a copy, and I'll include it in the site...

If I think of anything else I'll let the list know...

Wooo -- the excitement of OS development! :)

P.S. It's been a lot of fun us working together on our own. I can't wait to
share the enjoyment with others...
