Phase World Annex

i've always been a fan of space related fiction, especially space opera settings like Star Trek and the new Battlestar Galactica, as well as hard scifi settings like Larry Niven's Known Space novels. so it should be no surprise that i'm a fan of palladium book's Phase World setting, which is a grand Space opera setting spanning three entire galaxies, and heavily influenced by shows such as Star Trek, Star Wars, Babylon 5, and others.

although i don't get it play it much, i have written a number of things for the setting. new races, such as the Chor'ii, new spaceships, and various houserules. many of these houserules are aimed at addressing the weaknesses of the setting, to have it conform a bit closer to my own preferances in regards to science fiction.

This Annex has been created to house my creations, and make them available to any who would like to use them in their games.
