I was toying with an idea for some home-brew Homeworld playing pieces. My musing was around the fact that a pyramid pointed skyward denoted a sun, while a pyramid on its side was a spaceship. What if you had a set of minimal icehouse pieces http://www.ee0r.com/proj/minimice.html and on the interior faces, painted a sun on the square base, and a spaceship on the triangular side? If you looked at the playing table from above, you'd see spaceships and stars where you should see them. I was fantasizing even further. Remember those ancient naughty "stripper" ball point pens? Hold the pen upright, and you see a lady wearing a black bikini. Turn the pen upside down, and the bikini disappears It is done with transparent channels and a black opaque liquid. So in theory, one could have transparent channels delineating a spaceship on the triangular side, and a star delineated on the square side. When the point is up, the black liquid drains into the star, on its side the black liquid drains into the triangle. Yeah, totally out of the question, but a guy can dream, can't he? Take care, Winchell Chung
