Welcome Back!
At long last, we have a home on the
web, again. Some site - which shall remain nameless (since they
sucked major dick, anyway) - couldn't pay its server bill, and
we leaped on the domain ASAFP. No more hiding out at Geoshities
for us!
It'll take us a while to get the rest
of the site transferred over, but we decided not to make you
wait any longer for the new issue. You can still get the old
stuff from the Archivez at the
previous site, but you might want to
hurry up, m'kay?; It's only a matter of time before they realize
we're still operating out of their server and shut us
down! : P

Big Newz
First off, let me say how happy we are
to have gotten another Special Treat for you all. There were
more than a few fans who wondered if there was something cut
from Blights on the Landscape, by Spectre's first developer,
Jessica Shornheart. The book's always been considered to be a
golden example of fine, 1st ed Spectre (as opposed to the watered-down,
more "hopeful" material that came later) but it always
seemed like it only went so far, and then stopped suddenly?
Well, it turns out it was: entire paragraphs
were sliced out of the text at the very last minute for one reason
or another, just before it went to press. And guess what we've
got, right here? That's right - several pieces that should
have been in Blights, but weren't. Hold onto your hats,
folks - this is some killer stuff.
As for the other big news... we're sure
you've already heard about what happened at Darque-Con if you
hang out on alt.games.blackdog, but here's the real story.
Maybe we can tell it here without six billion assholes from Black
Dog Gaming Factory (and their Hitler Youth fanclub) jumping in
and defending the sorry motherfucker.
(And yes, you assholes can post all
you like on our forums. Some of us still believe in free
speech. Just remember we Spectre fans give as good as we get,
m'kay?)
And we're also happy to report that,
while we were at Darque-Con getting our asses kicked by Black
Dog staffers, we managed to get 100 more signatures on our petition
to bring back Spectre: the Annihilation! How's that for
a bunch of "statistically insignificant" fans?
