    KFAN UZANGOU A newsletter devoted to Vargr Tssue 3 February, 1993 fan Uzangou is a HIWG newsletter, distributed by Roger Mybre, HIWG's Gvurrdon sector analyst. The material inthis newsletter are COPYRIGHT by AUTHOR, and printed by permission. This newsletter is distributed freely to all approved Vargr sector analysts and developers of FHIWG, and its four Quadrant Editors, and Chairsophont. All others may subscribe by sending a self adressed envelope with a IRC. ‘Submissions and subscribers please send any corespodence to: Roger Myhre, Ammerudgrenda 168, 0960 Oslo, Norway. For more information on HIWG, write to: Clayton R. Bush, P.O. Box 895, Limon, CO 80828, USA. Kfan Uzangou #3 The Editor Barks Woof, its good to be back. As you see Kfan Uzangou has got a new look. The newsletter has gotten its much needed face-lift. Thope you will like the changes. Talking about changes, the TNE will soon be released, if GDW can keep its schedule for once. It might even be in the shelves by the time you read is. Either way, this new year will undoubtedly bring new opportunities for HIWG to mark itself as a fan organization for Traveller. The best way to do this as I see is to give Traveller, and thus GDW the support needed. Mike Mikesh has started a project developing subsector A in Masillia sector. Here the pocket empire, first called Nolan League, or Hub Worlds which is the name of it now. For more details on this project contact either Mike or more appropriately Adrian Stewart of HIWG(UK), when he is the designated leader of the project. Imperial Lines, the official newsletter from GDW, will be the medium that will feature Hub Worlds, so subscribe if you want to stay tuned. For us Vargr analysts Masillia might not be too interesting. But there are a lot of things we might do to enhance the feel of Traveller, old or new. Most of Vargr space won't be harmed by the Virus. What has happened in the extents these last 70 or eighty years? Start planning and most of all communicate with your analyst at your neighbour sector. Something I feel that has been too little of the last 12 to fifteen months. KU is one of the channels to use if you want to reach a lot of people at once. Ido distribute this newsletter to all known Vargr analysts. If people write in I will be able to send out issues more often. Another channel is AABP our new organization newsletter, distributed by Clay Bush. Table of Contents HIWG Mugshot. ‘The editor shows his face for the rest of the HIWG members.

I atered and froze in my ‘racks. ‘Arsin was standing atthe wash basin extending his neck. In his right hand “he had one sharp looking imife, which he moved to his thal.

I said puzzled. “And ‘What iS that white gunk in your face?” “That's shaving foam.” He replied, and gave me a lecture on human males need of shaving now and then. Usually they use machines for this, but be preferred the old fashioned knife. My ‘charisma had taken a serious dent, Later that evening the Klaxxons went off.

There has been rumors about sophoats crawling on the outside of a starship in Jjumpspace with vacesuits, but he didn't believe those rumors. So we would be spaced wien ‘we arrived in real space. ‘Two days came and went. Arsin looked funny with the two day old groweh of fur in his face. Arsin mumbled something of shaving, ‘The fur was obviously itching. Why don't you ask the guards if you can take a shave?” I asked, “Are you funny?” he growled.
