Well, last night I interviewed another one of those mysterious figures from my misspent youth.

Way back in the day, when I would play the Robotech roleplaying game from Palladium, I would often look at the names on the covers. Siembieda…Marcinyszin…Wujcik. I would wonder what kind of people might have names like that—and more importantly, I wondered if there was some kind of bylaw that you had to have an unpronounceable name in order to work at Palladium.

Last night I got to talk at length to Kevin Siembieda, and answer a lot of things I'd always wondered about the Robotech game and Palladium. I didn't ask the name question, but I did ask why it was that when, back in the '80s, I wrote a letter to Palladium with rules questions, I got my own letter back, with answers scribbled in the margins by Alex Marcinyszin.

It was a great interview, and I'm happy to have committed it. It can, of course, be found at Space Station Liberty
