it got a Cease and Desist order from GW, but it can be accuired from some places.



at any rate, weather the under portion of the city is under ground or not matters little as there will be no sunlight filtering down to those lower levels. it may as well be under ground.

But in the far future the places that ere empty are empty for a reason, usually because they're death worlds.

Only ONCE has rations been described as good tasting in my memory.


Soylens Viridianis is an obvious reference to Soylent Green
"Soylent Green is made of people. IT'S PEOPLE!"
Thus the flavor (or lack thereof) depends on the person... that it's made from.

Yes, I steal Futurama jokes.

Then again, anything else would have made for a more boring setting for the movie, so Rule of Cool applies.


That actually got released? I remember it being in production before I had a break from the hobby.


Indeed it did; it's on YouTube. It's actually not bad for a film made by guys who don't have a professional film studio, millions to hire special effects masters and a large cast potential to select from.
