DO NOT TRUST THE SHOVER ROBOT. PLEASE PROCEED TO THE SHAFT OF LIGHT. --Zarba, 24.2.02

Hm.. I never saw this one. I do like stop motion work though.. my favorite is "The Misadventures of Tom Thumb: A Nursery Crime of Epic Proportions".. a rather brilliant bit of work, worth looking up if you haven't seen it. Nev the Diminutive and Also Very Small --Nev, 29.4.02

Unfortunately the film isn't hosted on that site any more - anyone got a copy? (or seen the rather good "More"?) --PaulWay, 12.6.02

Just saw it.... wow! It was really cool! It was a really interesting statement packed into a few minutes! Cool beans! --Andy, 14.9.03

Brief notes from playtesting this deck. It's a fun tug of war, but we came across some ambiguities in the rules. One was the wording 'a Canopy stops all light below its wavelength' makes it seem like one canopy can stop multiple Shafts. Which would mean the White Canopy makes you immune to all Shafts. Pretty sure that's not how it's meant! Other one was concerning Canopies assigned to a shaft. When the shaft is destroyed, what happens to the Canopy? Does it get arbitrarily reassigned to another Shaft if there is one? Or stays on guard for any potential other shaft that might crop up? That situation arose as well. Still a fun one, though! --Cobalt, 29.4.04

Does anyone have a video clip of "Shaft of Light"? Or maybe even "The Misadventures of Tom Thumb: A Nursery Crime of Epic Proportions", "More", Nev the Diminutive" or "Also Very Small" - those are animations aren't they? Any info or links are very welcome. Thanks so very much. - Arashi. --Arashi, 14.11.04
