The first draft of the Hot War text will be finished by the end of December and be ready to go out for some external playtesting at that point.
So I'm soliciting volunteers who would be able to playtest it for a bit, be that one session, a few sessions, longer, even. Feedback on both the system and setting elements would be great and I'll provide outlines of some of the stuff I'd particularly like looked at to each group.
Bear in mind this is early stage testing, so there are quite a few rough edges!
If you'd like to give it a go, then please do express your interest in this thread.

Dont think you get away that easily Mr Gow or that I have overlooked the fact that you are the next person to run something!

Am interested, though it wouldn't really be until after Xmas at this point; gamers all gone home or too busy shopping (referring to Lucy of course).

Hi Malcolm,
First post here. I'm interested in looking over this. I have a few of the CGS games, and I like what you do, so if I can lend my aid to your next project I'd be happy to. I have a small group locally here that play mini-campaigns as opposed to a single long campaign. I've doen some playtesting and writing before, if thats pertinent.
Regards,
Shane
