Updates: Champions, Chill, Cyberpunk, Dark Conspiracy

I'm covering all my bases here, so don't expect all of this at once or anytime in particular (unfortunately, probably not any time real soon on a lot of it), but here's what's going down over to the site, proper:

Champions

The legal department is almost live. I'm building things in the right order accidentally, meaning I published an article which isn't linked to by anything already published, so no one else can get to it. It contains links to pretty much every other page in the folder. If I continue to publish the pages in this fashion, the entire department will be presented when the index page is published. This will all happen very soon, as I'm finishing the Legal Content right now.

More of Megacity is on the way, but the above is a major Champions roll-out and I have other matters to which I must attend, so it will be presented as I get to it. The information is already done; I just have to determine layout and so forth.

Cyberpunk

No ETA. There are now several Cyberpunk dictionaries online and the coding on this stuff is deep... Unless I can find a workaround, it's going to take a lot of time. I may publish one page at a time, but it leaves a lot of dead links and those are never good.

Chill

New Vincent material - introductory Vincent material - is on the way. It is being held-up by graphics issues. What I may start doing is blocking-in the artwork when it isn't ready - that way, I only need place the actual images once they're done, as opposed to republishing the entire page/project. Anyway, it is on the way.

Dark Conspiracy

I got sidetracked here because of the move. In the meanwhile, I started a new project. At first it was because I couldn't find the Dark Conspiracy books, but then it was more of a personal thing. I have the books and all and know what needs to be done, it's just a matter of getting back into it - it's a sprawling mess, to be honest. The organization is taking some time to stumble through - doubly so because I can't find an easier way to do things - as are the images. However, I think it's all worth it.

I need to update the pages already in-place so everything is congruent, but because Dark Conspiracy is so big, it gets to be the first department I "map"-out before actually working on it. That is, I'm going to use index cards to layout the entire thing, from directory to page. It's kind of a hassle.
