They don't build those Star Destroyer reactors like they used to.

Glad to have you back online, lordxorn.

Hey LordXorn, I do not have the heart to tell IGard the power failed on Romulan DiLithium Crystals, do you?
We will keep it a secret in the interest of Inter-Galactic Amity!

Status: offline 		Hey Erik, for some reason the link isn't working for me to download the modding guide. Is there another link or am I doing something wrong? I can save it as a HTML but it won't open and I can't seem to save it as a PDF. I've got all the adobe products and readers installed and updated. Any clues why I can't seem to save and open from the attachment link?

Thanks for the help and the Guide :)
