The reason why I asked this one is because I'm dirt broke at the
minute, but would like to have a clue about what's going on with
this list.... I can't afford a copy of Ogre Minis.

Okay, so this time I looked more into the dark corners of my gaming
area and found yet more SpaceGamers... I found Icepick, a scenario
that explains structure points, and my question is this: How close is
the material given there to the structure points system in use now?
This is in SG #68, BTW.

	[Thats the one with the article on "Map Bashing".  I'll be doing a
bit of that for the next game.

	The SP system (and lasers) was lifted from Ice Pick directly into
Shockwave and hasn't changed much since.

	Actually the article that comes closest to Ogre Minis is "Ogre
Squash" from the 50's I think.

	The single biggest change to the combat system has been the
addition of a result on the CRT beyound X, called XX.  That and the
Platoons of Heavy Infantry with the attack strength of 9. (Is that doubled
in overruns?)

	The attackers should remeber that orders are due in by the 8th...
