Would you be willing to entertain customer suggestions?  I'm sure we can 
manage, on this list, to come up with a Top Ten list or some such of what 
we'd LIKE to see, for you to have in hand for that discussion!  =o)

To which end, my ideas:

Plainly put, more content.  Even if it's mostly allusions to the contents of 
the actual books.

Ideas for content:

    * Typical locations, as in Bars, convenience stores, other locales GM's 
might want to use.  Detailed with quick blurbs about the NPC's present, etc, 
etc.  This could easily be a player-submission item, by the by.

    * NPC's.  Lots and Lots of NPC's.  Regs, Deltas ... young AND old ... 
good and bad.  Primers, Defiants, and the (rare) independants.  Basically, a 
"cast of htousands" sort of affair.  Again, prime candiate for a Player 
Submission item.

    * Extra Power Packages, tricks, and such ... optional rules, equipment 
lists (more laong the lines of non-standard gear), new quirks, and so on.  
Not a huge compilation ... but a slow, steady trickle of stuff (player AND 
official, maybe) would make the site worth going back to.

    * online catalogue ... including the miniatures, WITH PICTURES (noone 
buys a mini he cannot see, unless he has money to burn or throw away ...).

    * Official Webring.  Lots of us have (or, in my case, are laboriously 
designing) websites that deal with BNW.  An official webring ... or better, 
TWO webrings (one In Character, the other Out Of Character ...) ... would be 
great!

    * Such a website would be a PERFECT place to put up any Errata that might 
exist, as well as a clarifications and FAQ arrangement.

    * This mailing list!  =o)  Along with access othe archives, say.

    * An IN CHARACTER mailing list, possibly.  As well as a listing of email 
lists/games/etc run by US ... sort of a "Mailign List Ring" or some such: one 
central point from which to check out much of the BNW community.

    * Game adverts!  Give us a place to post adverts for our games that we 
might be running, online ANd off.  Sort of a Player Resource listing.



Well anyway.  Maybe you and the list can look that over, add/comment, and 
then in a week you can have some ideas to present to AEG, which are *fan* 
generated.

Just do me a BIG favor, eh?  NO BNW CCG!  *PLEASE* !!!  AEG has some _odd_ 
ideas baout CCG-vs-RPG priorities .... =oP
