Yes, its an update of monumental proportions.
Without
spearweasel in attendance, gaming actually happened with the Saturday night group. I can't remember the last time this happened, if it ever happened at all.
greensilkchai and Juan showed up for an exiting night of target shooting, meditation training, and a dinner of chile reyenos from a old recipe from Ming Tai. The possibility of having salsa (the condiment, not the dance) re-introduced to the 'verse has also came up.
Then there was the epic battle with the rattlesnake, which alas, Juan's PC Fernando will be turning into a belt or hatband. "Smores" were eaten in celebration of the heroic defeat of the deadly snake.
All this happened while others were training on how to fly the ship, in particular, the tricky take-off and landings on a planet.
I look forward to the next session, when the ship is boarded by Alliance customs officials!
