Links to material relevant to space combat games and narratives

On this page you will find a small but gradually expanding selection of links to material that should support wargaming space battles (or for that matter writing narratives involving space battles). I will continue to add to this as opportunity in my time poor life permits. Your suggestions are welcome.

I should clarify that I have not read all of these from top to bottom, so please excuse any silliness or offensive material… if it has slipped through it’s due to my not having read that far, not blanket approval of any and all content found at the end of these links. Suggestions on material to remove is also welcome.

A fully developed set of space combat rules that feature ‘real world’ physics such as no maximum move rating – rather a maximum thrust rating – for accelerating and decelerating and all the associated fun and games with trying to turn while moving.
