Welcome aboard Dawgie! Youv'e arrived just in time to see GAFDOZ reborn all posh!
With a load of new figures en-route too. There may not be dinosaurs but there are Dragon Men of Hydrus.
There may not be Starship troopers but there are the Protectorate Guard.
GAFDOZ is the love child of Alex Raymond and Gerry Anderson!

Subject: [gafdoz] DAWGIE IN THE DOCKING BAY
MAN OF LA MANCHA shuddered when the bow entered the docking ring and the clamps made contact, firmly attaching the 400 tonner to the orbital station.
"CONTROL, MAN OF LA MANCHA. we are securely docked and showing green boards at our end."
"ROGER that, MAN OF LA MANCHA. we are showing green boards at our end also. power - down as soon as the umbilicals are connected and prepare to recieve official boarding party, over."
"ROGER, CONTROL. umbilicals are connected and green. powering down now. opening outer airlock now."
DAWGIE shifted his seegar to the other side of his mouth, and said over his shoulder to the THE MAN's control room crew at large, "Time to meet and greet the powers that be! PARTS, get yourself down to the airlock and "howdy" the bureaucrats for me. i will be in my office, with prepared drinks, snacks and required documentation."
"On the way SKIPPER!" this was from a middle aged, small, but well arranged example of female free trader with a crew-cut and wearing a pumpkin yellow shipsuit. PARTS released her safety harness, stood and stretched, searching her numerous pockets for something
"PARTS is lookin' for her official MAN OF LA MANCHA MEET AND GREET CARD," boomed the man at the navigator's station.
"UP yours, BILLY!" replied PARTS as she departed the control room, still searching her pockets for something.
DAWGIE released his harness and lurched to his feet, still shifting the unlit seegar from one side of his mouth to the other, and followed PARTS through the open hatch.
" Damn, i forget to check and see if we know anyone else docked here. Must be gettin' old!"
THE MAN'S intercomm announced to the unseeen official boarding party, "Stand by, please. i will open the inner airlock as soon as your escort arrives."
HOWDY! i am know all over the internet by the name DAWGIE. i have been gaming since the 70s with miniatures, dice, rules, terrain, and tabletops. i am a dinosaurs to starships and starship troopers kind of gamer (and almost everything in between). 25mm/28mm is my chosen scale for playing games; skirmish gaming and tactical RPGing are my favorite games. thought i would drop by, say, hello, introduce myself, and have a looksee for my - self.
