Could we plan on getting together on the 11th (Sunday)?  Of the days you
mentioned, Sunday is the only one that I'm available, and it works for Joe as
well.  How about everybody else?

The 11th works for me as well.

  The 11th is fine.  I can do my drive on the 10th that way, and
  avoid the Friday rush.

  Have you got enough room for a ship?  :D

Definitely.  We can set it up in the guest room.  How big a table do you
need for it?

  I might build a few modules,
  if you can point me to a clearinghouse of module directions (though
  I know the basics are 16x16 with 2 six-wide doorways in each face).
  Any particular ones needed, corridors, rooms, etc?

Close, The basic size is a 16x16, but with 8 wide doors.  There are also 1x2
technic bricks located on each side (see Module Design).

Module Design:

On the map, I've included five 32x32 modules that need to be built (see '?'
modules on the MAP).  These modules are design to be interchangable by
having the doorways in the same location (see Door location..).  This design
allows us to add a little mystery to the map by not knowing the exact layout
of the ship.  I only need four of these built since I've already built one.

Door location of needed modules:

Since Susan and Lindsay haven't seen the modules from the last game, I would
like to encourage everyone to put covers on there modules (simple base plate
placed on top).  This applies to any new ones as well.

  Also, any way I can drop something big off on the 10th?  Just so
  it's not in my backseat all weekend...

That's fine since no one is staying in the guest room.  Will you be setting
it up that night?  :-)  That way I can get a sneak peak at it.  Pictures
only do so much and I'm dying to see the details.

By the way, do you have a place to stay while you're in town?  The guest
room is free if you want it.

Send me an email directly and I can send you directions.

Jonathan
