    Well it's science fiction- but the metaphorical comparison is obvious- Brave New World, brave new board, etc. smile.gif

    More relevant in Literature really, hope no one minds if I move it there? Lloth's kingdom is distinctly unpopulated atm which is a crying shame...

    Hmmm, have to keep an eye out for the book war of the worlds.. it's one I never really got around to reading.

    The film and the game were class though!
