Harrier in dire straights...

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Harrier in dire straights...

*Emerges from shadows* Greetings everyone. I was just contacted by Harrier's son on MSN this morning, and he stated that Harrier is currently in hospital and is seriously ill due to cancer. Apparently, Harrier was suffering from a bad cough and went to undergo some tests, and was diagnosed not long ago. I have been informed that things don't look good at the moment, and his family have stated that they are getting the feeling that he only has a few days left. I am sure that you will join with me in wishing Harrier well, and hope that he recovers soon.

I think I can speak for everyone when I say that I am shocked and saddened, and we all hope that Harrier pulls through and that his family finds strength. Get well soon Harrier, this world needs you.

Sincerely,
David "Cold_Void" Suitter

Just finished emailing some of you regarding this topic...I am kind of short of words at the moment, I've known Harrier almost 4 years now and we've become very short friends. His son emailed me and asked that I call him so I'll do that and get back to you all...

Jesus.
Harrier?
I shall keep him in my prayers.

Just talked to Harrier and his son on the phone...

Not sure how much information he would want sent out, so I'll hold back most now...

For those of you who don't know, Harrier is a modder here on TLR. He's my modding mate and produces some of the finest models I've ever seen. He would very much like you guys to see his latest works, so his son is going to come on MSN later and send them to me...I will package them and post pictures of them for you all to see.

Not much more to say...Harrier sends his regards to all here on TLR...I will keep you posted.

I also gave his cell phone number to Esky, so Esky might be back later with more info.

I was not able to get through to Harrier personally, as he is rather fatigued from the treatments that he is undergoing. I was able to speak to his son however, and he wished me to thank you all for you concern and best wishes, and assure you that he will provide more information on Harrier's condition when it arrives.

Can't say I talked to Harrier a lot, but all the best mate and never ever ever ever give up!

I am completely speechless...

All the best Harrier, my thoughts are with you and your family. I hope you can pull through.

I don't know Harrier but I've seen some of his work...

Harrier, stay strong and best of luck,
-Chris

Harrier, I don't recall ever really meeting him, although I have seen him around here. My best wishes.

this came to me as quite a shock..

i've always thought of harrier as the guy behind that churns out the stuff lancers want.

i'm really at a loss as to what to say. i really do hope he pulls through.

He really is...I've been his modding partner for almost 4 years now, and all the great things he's ever made have always been for the love of FL and the joy you guys got out of using his ships...

His son tells me that Harrier has asked me to gather his models and make a final package from them...Now, for those of you who don't know, Harrier and I are the makers of Epsilon...I know he'd like nothing more than to put out a big final version of Epsilon for the community to see...He and I put a lot of work into this version (as did others, such as Buck Danny, and Veral) and we've been planning (and delaying ) a release for quite some time now...Hopefully I can get it out now...

I'll keep you all updated...

Edit

Just an aside...If any of you want to get a personal message to Harrier, you can send it to me and I will make sure he gets it...
