Sooo, it's a couple of months past February 2011 now. Was there any word about the Alien RPG's downfall that I missed?

Oh Jimmy, you were so funny.

Don't let me down.

Maybe people just don't like re-living their experiences on projects that were among the biggest disappointments in their professional lives.

Brock Heinz: In Aliens RPG we had a design for a small shoulder mounted auto-turret called the "Shoulder Buddy" #TrueStory
