"The Mote in God's Eye" (with Larry Niven)is one of the best SF novels ever written. Sadly, the sequel was not so good. Pournelle's other stuff is pretty good, too. |

Niven & Pournelle was better on average than Niven OR Pournelle, which is a rare accomplishment. I still rate Inferno and Oath of Fealty as the best of a very good bunch, but neither have much to offer the Miniature Wargamer, while Pournelle's CoDominium and Second Empire stories just cry out for wargames. |

Years ago I was tinkering together a set of rules for space combat with the Langston field generator, but I never got it to the playtest stage. |
