Aftermath
CWC/Coalition Navy (also consider these as essentially one book)
Manhunter

I am very opinionated. Yes I rub people the wrong way but at the end of the day I just enjoy good hard discussion and will gladly walk away agreeing to not agree

Re: Favorite books?
They don't really make books that I don't like, just ones I haven't gotten around to using. I still skim/read them all and there is always something of intrigue there for me. I do like where Phase World/3 Galaxies books are going. Also the fact that they revisit some of my favorite settings.
SB1 was revised then had Shemmarian Nation.
Same for Vampire Kingdoms (a revision) with Arzno (also adds to West books) and a new sourcebook.
Atlantis had Splynn.
China 1 & 2 added to Japan to give more flavor to the Far Eastern Asian setting.
Triax 2 for Triax.
Megaverse in Flames will be great additional material for Canada/Free Quebes and the Minion War series.
They do a good job of keeping the old fresh.

I will be 125 living in Rio de Janeiro when the Great Cataclysm comes, I will not survive long but I will be cloned threw the Achilles project and my clones will be Achilles Neo-Humans that will start a new Jedi order in Psyscape.

Re: Favorite books?
I'd have to say, in no particular order:
RUE
Lone Star
New West
Coalition War Campaign
Of course, it MIGHT just be because these are the only four books I have... But even still, I like the subject matter in each of 'em.

I would hate to have a confrontation with the guy that came up with Thumpers.
I can't tell if that's a shot at me or at Thunpers.
