    A small request....:)

    'evening all!

    Just wanted to make a small on-topic/off-topic request here and explain why the request is being made.

    I was wondering if I could interest anybody who's gotten ahold of and enjoyed the SMAX guide to head to the booksurge site and perhaps jot down a few words in the way of a review?

    The reason I'm asking is that I'm getting more and more deeply involved in the new company, Velocigames, and we're inching steadily closer to having a playable demo. Still some ways off, but it's coming...and it's gonna be awesome.....

    So...what I'm hoping is, that I can make use of some favorable reviews from my publication work (Smax guide, soon to be released Guardians, and not long after, Five Days in May), to help get some attention focused on the Courts of Candle'Bre when it's ready to roll....

    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

    I'd be happy to give it a shot (even though to date I only have the version that appeared here).
    I think I'd rather not be the first one up to the plate though. Its a little intimidating

      How about:

      "I got the smax guide by Velocyrix and now the BABES are all over me. I having so much sex now I hardly have time to work. Every time I read a new chapter, I get a couple of new super models or other hot babes. All this and I have not even read the chapter on fusion powered implant enhancement or quantum powered sex toys yet."

          I am George W. Bush and I bought Vel's strategy guide and it has changed my life.

          His tips taught me which faction to choose to get double votes and how to bribe effectively. Can you say Florida baby! Ali bye bye.
          The boost in my commerce rating from being planetary president is buff.

          I have read and reread his section on the metagame. Applying his tips I am now using my puppet governments in the Middle East to soften up that region prior to lauching my final invasion.

          I'll never be able to thank Vel enough for giving me that idea of building punishment spheres for all these liberal drones. Can you say nerve staple Hillary?

          Vel's book is better'n Nolan Ryan in heat , but you got to be careful trying to read it and eat. I like to choked to death on a pretzel looking at those pics of Dee running naked.

                Do you really want me to put that reveiw there, it might not be entirely appropriate, after all I have only read your former SMAC guide, not the one for SMAC-X.

                        Vel, nice to see you again! I'll submit my review to the site as soon as I can (I'm at work now), even though I only have your original version (SMAC-only).
                        I watched you fall. I think I pushed.
