Hi. *My name is Jon. *And I'm addicted to Firefly.
A strange way to start, but let me explain how I ended up on these shores.

First: My interest in Firefly led me to "Firefly The Game" - which led to "Board Game Geeks" - which led to "Sails of Glory" - which has led me here.

Second: I liked the TV Series Sharpe - which led to the Sharpe Books - which led to me thinking about Artillery during Napoleonic times ( and possibly computer modelling and animating these ) - which led to Osprey Publishing (specifically Napoleonic Artillery, including Naval Artillery) - which has led to an interest in Sailing Ships of that era.

Third: A friend asked me to create some computer visualizations for his book (Sci-Fi) based on the equivalent of a Frigate ( and the freedom it provided the Captain, when away from the Fleet ). *He provided a general introduction on sailing ships and their operation. *So when I saw Frigates, it just added to my interest (in SoG).

So now I wait on shore, scanning the horizon in vain, hoping to sight some "Sails of Glory".
Nothing has arrived locally, and I'm on a waiting list.
But I've been following various threads on this site with interest.

Jon
