[Rq-rules] RQIII CharGen software by Kevin Spencer

[David Smart]

ARRRGH!!!! Googlemail blocked even a password-protected zip file!

I admire Google's capabilities, though. Looks like I'm going to have to bite

tomorrow but I'll post again once the software is available. It really is
very slick and is customizable, assuming one is comfortable with manually
typing changes directly into data tables.
