It's always good to hear from you, and good now to see what you look like! If nothing else, you have _confirmed_ my existing thought of elevating Alipang to a leadership role when the dust has settled. Also glad that my combat scenes appear plausible.
I _might_ write in _one_ more good-guy death; but "losing" Ranger Terrell was enough of a serious loss, that I decided I _will_ keep Henry Spafford alive.
