(...) Arrrr. So now I know there are other mast-parts in existence, which I don't have. And if I had them, I could make more really cool ships, with more varied masts. And all I have to do to get these bits is to buy one or more copies of the either (...) (25 years ago, 11-Oct-99, to lugnet.pirates)
