--------------------GEV List Thingy Jan 20th-------------------- From: Kerry Harrison Subject: Ogre/GEV mailing list To: hcobb@fly2.berkeley.edu Henry, I'd like to subscribe to your Ogre/GEV mailing list. I'm interested in all things Ogre as my company has just recently acquired the rights from SJG to do realtime online and electronic mail versions of Ogre based on the Ogre Miniatures rules.

This way, I could avoid asking all of the same questions again. I haven't heard of light tanks, missile infantry or a Cobb formula so far. but it sounds interesting... BTW, I live in Germany, so there wasn't much of a choice which version to get, I haven't even seen the mini games anywhere.
