Introduction This website is home to a variety
of articles relating to the military aspects of GDW's 2300AD RPG. These
have been prepared and reviewed by members of the Etranger list. The list
was established in August 1999 to expand on GDW's relatively limited
descriptions of 2300AD militaries and warfare on land, sea, air and in
space. It should be noted that some
articles by different authors are not consistent with one another. This
is largely due to the authors' differing conceptions of the nature of
2300AD. Recent

of various topics relating to the conduct of warfare in 2300AD, such as

background for campaigns. Weapons,

comprehensive history including the events of the Twilight 2000 game.

game's 'military history'. Links to other 2300AD and real
