Not to worry though - we will make up for it! This is good news. I was wondering if Undercurrents was being dropped or whatever, since I hadn't seen an issue of it in recent times. :) >>And what would the cost of such a supplement [Acces Denied] be? >That has yet to be determined... I didn't mean the actual cost, Jeff, but more along the lines of how much you guys thought you would charge for the GM screen thing. Here in Ottawa, and at most Canadian gaming stores, the BLUE PLANET basic rules go for $37.95 (Can$ of course). Thus, I wondered about whether the GM Screen would be very expensive or what. ...

I'm new to the list (seeing as I just bought the game recently) and I just wanted to say hello to everyone. I'm rather surprised in the fact that Blue Planet's been out almost a whole year and I just found out about it a few weeks ago! Of course, if the one game store here in Fort Worth doesn't carry something, I don't see it, unfortunately.     However, I'm quite glad to have obtained it now and I'd just like to say (as I'm sure many have, and many more will) that it is a fantastic game universe and system.
