StarMaster

[Starkadder]

I came across a StarMaster morsel, this night. I wonder if any of these names will jar any PBM memories in the minds of PBM players of old.

There were different dimensions, apparently - 3rd Dimension, 4th Dimension, etc.. What was the game's take on dimensions? Was each dimension a separate set of players who were otherwise playing their own game of StarMaster in their own area of space, but perhaps there was a way for empires from one game/dimension to interact with or attack players in other games/dimensions?

Names of player empires included: Valkyrian Empire, Chronometric Humans, and the Red Gammau Cybernauts.

Allen Pit and Richard Lloyd who were the game masters would be the perfect people to know, even Kevin Novack who played the Lyrian Star Imperium might have some idea.

What little play I did, did introduce other dimension travel. I found aliens (NPC race) rounding up native aliens (NPC race) and taking them back to their home dimension. But never had the chance to investigate more because the game ended, so I don't really know the mechanics of dimensional travel. The only major player empires that I knew of were the Lyrian Star Imperium and the Vekkans (with their Huntress). Of course the Illian Swarm were a major problem for many other player empires.
