 Buyer Beware: AWOL Productions no longer doing FASA business.

 AWOL  Productions, formerly the publishers of  the Shadowrunr network
magazine, KA*GE and MechForcer North America no longer have the rights to
produce FASA material.  FASA Corp. pulled AWOL's license on March 13th,
1995.  Unfortunately, several checks have been canceled after this March
date and no service has been provided.
 If you have sent a check to AWOL Productions after this March date, we
recommend that you stop payment on the check.  If you find that your check
has been cashed and have not received services, please contact the
Missouri Consumer Protection office at # 314-751-3321.  Leave your name
and number and they will send you a complaint form for you to complete and
send back.  The more complaints they receive the sooner they'll take
action.

 To date, some older FASA products still have ads for AWOL's MechForce
North America and KA*GE.  Please take note and do not send any money to
AWOL Productions.  It appears that AWOL abandoned their P.O. Box leaving
an outstanding debt with Mail Boxes Etc. Unless AWOL clears this debt, any
mail in this P.O. Box most likely will not be returned. If you have sent a
check after this March date and have not received anything, this is
probably where it is and again we recommend that you stop payment on the
check. 

 MechForce North America is now in the hands of FASA.  If you would like a
membership application, please contact FASA by writing to the address
below or by e-mail.
