    [ICON]Artificial Lifeforms

    The link seems dead, so I'll ask if anyone has this saved.

    Artificial Lifeforms Sourcebook. If you have it, please email it to me, respond with a link or something. I made a hardcopy of it (which is now destroyed) and my system had gotten a virus (kids downloading a game from the web). Now it's gone. Please, anyone, I beseech thee. I'll even say something nice about....about....that UPN sci-fi series that airs on Wednesday nights starring Scott Bakula.

    Yeah, sorry. That link's been dead for quite some time. I'd put it on my web site but... well... I haven't got one put together at the moment.

    By the time you read this you'll probably have recieved the AI file I sent you via email. And if you say something nice about Bakula and (nausea) Enterprise I'll...I'll...I don't exactly know but it won't be nice. I like everything about that show except the crew and the stories. Maybe one day they'll get real actors and writers to do they show, until then that "Whir...Thump" noise they keep hearing from Roddenberry's grave will keep on going.

    Am I correct in my thinking that this is an in-depth look at Data?

    It's an in depth look at all artificial life in Star Trek, from the androids to Mudd's planet, to Data, da BORG, the exocomps and even the EMH.

    Well written and thought out and play tested at least 5 times in my neck of the woods, I strongly recommend it to all LUG players to the point that I consider it an "official" LUG release.

    The rules are written in such a way, that as a lark, I designed a sentient starship with them (a la Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda) as well as a cybernetically enhanced society for my Star Trek games.

    Wow! Such kind words. You're all inspiring me to... take to the keyboard once more!

    Okay, okay... I'll work on an upgrade for this document and make an attempt to port the material to CODA (if I can). I still spend most of my game time with ICON, so much so that I've still not yet learned all the ins and outs of the CODA system... so it might take a while.

    In any case, I had no idea that my little PDF had such a cult following. That's pretty cool.

    P.S. Sorry, but I can't keep the file up on the Web. Email me if you want me to send you a copy.

    Cult following? You ain't seen nothing yet boy.

    <flattery>I've been waiting for you to do other works as well. All I do is take stuff from one game and make it work with LUG Trek You actually take Star Trek and make it work with LUG Trek.</flattery>









    Now I'll just sit back and wait for the Species 8472 netbook to be penned by Admiral Mactavish.

    Wow, excellent material! I am looking forward to the Coda conversion. Decipher should gotten mactavish to write a chapter for the aliens manual. I will have to update my Type I AI to reflect the Coda conversion when it comes out.

    Thanks for sending it to me mactavish.

    No problem, Chris.

    Since I have a couple days off this week for the Easter holiday, maybe I'll actually get some of it done.
