Warped books covers in SMAC
After the previous post about the Original Faction names, I thought that I would contribute another useful tidbit of info. I played the game for over two years before discovering this, and thought I would share it with any of you who aren't aware of it. When you finally get the list of best sellers/books you've written at the end of the game based on your score, you can click on the the title and get the cover art! Yes, each warped title comes with an equally warped and inspired piece of cover art. My wife who is not a strategy gamer looked over these with me when I discovered them and chortled. I very much hope not to raise "A nerve-stapled child"

They are priceless. I think BR's team was up too late on night and had a delirious brain storming session. Luckily they graced us with their creativity!

Cool, I didn't know that...... Maybe I'll set one as the background on my comp.
