Hello Bruce,

Yes the fonts are not to my liking. Still trying to decide which one
to settle on.

Yes I am working on new siloutes. Even the best ones have to be
redone at a better quality. They looked ok on the screen and even on
the print preview but not on the printouts. I have redone some but
haven't had time ti update the files yet.
I will be doing silouets for each type but it is more work than I
originaly thought. I have to do the originals as a large size then
reduce them.

Typos keep creeping in. It seems I am on the keyboard for hours at a
time. I need more breaks. I am formating and piecing the Slann book
together. Waiting on some feedback from the text.

I am putting each race in a seperate section (at least that is my
present goal.) If you have anything on new units or what units to
use for them, write it up and I will look at it. Look at the other
note files for what I have done so far. Exodus cavalry will also be
Dracon cav also. (did you notice that a Dracon was leading the
Exodus Raiders Company originally?) The Stegadon can be used by
Exodus or Dracons. One or two clarifications here and there. A few
grammer corrections ans spelling errors.

Photos? At present I have none! My camera is no good for the real
closeups and while some have been offered, I have recieved none. I
may have a professional do mine but at present I have only Slann and
Necron Infantry. Fixing to order some stuff. Kraytonian vehicles for
Necrons, Bacuss walkers for maybe Raptor riders. DRM dune buggies
look great but a bit expensive for the little guys. I haven't found
anything better though. I see the Exodus tanks (wheeled) as 6
wheeled armored car types.

Not to keen on Ratkat riders but maybe. Thinking Pendragon 10mm
lizard riders. A big problem with most of them for me is that I have
never actually seen any of them. Size matters on some things so
mechs and Titans are a problem. Mech Warriorr is the same as Battle
Tech but larger and in plastic? Size wise I am not even sure of the
Kraytonian tanks? Their may be other options for Necron tanks but
time and money is not on my side.
