Default Caprice Lobby-Group

I wanted to flag my enthusiasm for seing some revised/extended Heavy Gear material for the Caprice setting.

Obviously Terra-Nova material will most likely be first, but if SJG wanted to get some Caprice material (a revised overview book maybe) out in the early days I would be keen to get hold of it.

Any other Caprice fans out there?

It would be awesome if they could open it up to all of the colonies. I don't remember how many colony books they ended up writing, but the blurbs at the beginning of the rulebooks were just enough to get my interest bubbling in those fantastic worlds.

Had to go grab my books.
Lesse:
Caprice Book One: Corporate
Caprice Book Two: Liberati
Colony Book One: Life on Caprice
Colony Book Two: Life on Utopia
Colony Book Three: Life on Atlantis
Colony Book Four: Life on Eden

There were as many books for Caprice as there were for all the other worlds.

Arguably, we also have Earth Book One: Colonial. But, that's not a colony book in any sense of the word ;-).

Have I mentioned that I love Heavy Gear and have all the books? :-) And, in some cases, multiple copies?

I really wish I had kept on top of those books. They would have been great to have. Once they hit their 3rd edition, though, I just gave up on it. Not by any fault of the writers. I just didn't have the energy to follow an edition change at the time. ;)

I bought three copies of the Third Edition rule book, and two copies of the SilCORE rule book. (Don't ask how many copies of Characters and Campaigns I've purchased.) I think, for a while, I was the only person keeping Heavy Gear alive at my FLGS.

I do own the SilCORE book, but I've never had an occasion to use it. I mean, I like it, I just haven't had a need to use the system since I actually played HG...which was probably 9 or 10 years ago.
