Hey, most Texans seem to think the Mounties are kewl...I'd love to see a team-up between a Mountie and a Texas Ranger. It'd be like an international version of Tango and Cash! :D

Thanks for the chart, much better than my old sketches. How about another page with a small paragraph on each group, since that way the players don't have to read everything on the organization part of the book?

Hrm... I think that's reproducing just a bit too much of the info within for my taste. Not a bad idea, but I'm more comfortable with the page references for now.

I've skimmed through the relevant sections and didn't find anything to that effects. However, IW does make it clear that AOI is the only department that is strictly under UNIC's control, and is hidden from Infinity via a series of front companies and such. So it's strongly implied if nothing else.

Thanks for setting me on that research, BTW -- I had missed an arrow on the chart, showing Infinity Unlimited's degree of control over Infinity Development. Org chart has been updated, and I also bolded the IU box just to make it more prominent, since I imagine most people consider IU the center of any IW game.

Worked out what my problem was; I was thinking of something from the IW playtest files, which changed in the final draft.

Bloody ontoclasms. Serves me right for acquiring temporal stability, of course.
