Whoa! Universal Household has a military force?

Isn't that like Whirlpool or Sony or Ikea getting directly involved in a military fight?

Interesting. I think I remember reading about this mini-game but I never saw a copy of it.

Watch out now. Don't make the Maytag repairman mad!

More like Tommy Hilfiger or Ralph Loren.
I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers!

If we assume there are Corporate Wars between the Megacorporations why would we leave any of them out? As stated you can change these around easily, but remember the military forces are there to protect the Megacorporations from the evil Sathar.

Also there is a computer game version of this game floating around the interenet.

PS I will be posting more on this tonight. Stand by.

I'm looking forward to more information. This seems like a neat project to adapt an old TSR game to Star Frontiers (another old game).

I know this doesn't matter now, but do you think Antares would be on the standard 2D map of the Frontier or is above or below what I will call the "Prenglar Plain of the Ecliptic"? (i.e. star systems that would be within a few light years above or below Prenglar -- the center of the Frontier -- such as Dixon's Star, White Light, etc.)

Iggy's computer simulation of a 3D Frontier actually has inspired me to create some kind of layered star map... though other things have gotten in the way to prevent me from actually doing that.

There are a couple areas I have not done anything with. One is detailing the Imirrhos. The other is where Antares is located. While the Imirrhos are fairly simple I have thought the location as not important. Somewhere on the outskirts of the Frontier but since none of the action takes place in space it really doesn't matter.
