Heh... Iron Stars is #1 at RPGNow.com; The Merchant War is #6.

The plan for world domination progresses on schedule... smile

(That's pronounced "shedule", not "skedule".)

Given that I speak the American dialect of English, and not Kastilian: Skedule is shall ever remain.

On the other hand, yippee!
And I promises to pays me taxes when you rules the worlds.

I don't know how they compute that best-selling list -- Defiance has still sold more copies this month than anything else MJ12 has to offer...

Defiance is #4

From #2 to #4 in less than 24 hrs (oh wait, it's at #3 now...???...)...

That's it, I guess I'm going to have to purchase *more* personal copies of Defiance?
