Hello:
	From what I gathered from reading the mailing list archive, there is a
Japanese tactical war game based on LoGH.  Neat.  However, I have it on
good authority that there is another LoGH fleet combat game in the
works.  There is an outfit (based here in Milwaukee) called Musashi
Enterprises that used to just imported Japanese toys, models and
videos.  Now Musashi is breaking into the gaming with a brand new "Star
Blazers" (i.e. "Space Battleship Yamato") space fleet combat game. 
There is also line of lead miniatures that compliments this game. The
game itself came out at GenCon and is very, very good.
	Anyway, I had the opportunity to talk to game's designer ( who also
owns Musashi Enterprises) Keith Johanssen about anime gaming in
general.  He said that he is very interested in making a LoGH game using
much of the "Star Blazers" game system as well as a line of minis (for
which he says he already has masters made for most of the ships).  All
he needs to do is get permission from LoGH's creators and he can start
playtesting the game and producing the minis.
	BTW If you want more info on the Star Blazers game, there is an online
catalog with ordering info and pictures of the minis at:
