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.
