24/8/85 - No code.
In the editorial Duke announces a new fan club, with all new code book. Only £1 for existing members to join.

7/9/85 - A new code, and the end of an era. I have no idea what this code says, as I was never a member of the new fanclub!


So there you are people... some interesting titbits, tantalising glimpses, and a desperate need to get rid of T Shirts!

If there is anyone out there brave - or bored - enough to take on the task of translating the few remaining codes from the Cobra era using the new codebook and fanclub V.2.0... have at it!

Hope you have enjoyed!

I have been reading a bunch of the old hard copies over the last week, and was thinking I needed the codebreaker to see what these things say...or I can just look in this thread.

Ok apparently the Black Major lost or sold to the highest bidder my bases copy of the Red Shadow Codebook.
Anybody have a good scan or picture of it, I can't seem to find it here on the site ??

Cool. Thanks for the quick response. I'm just starting to get back into the swing of things.
