As a damp breeze whips at his cloak, he contemplates the war. He has culled the best generals, captains, and troops from his land. His court wizard wields powers that unnerve even the most seasoned warriors. Can the forces he commands hold the enemy at bay? Or will the king awake at dawn to the pounding of battering rams and showers of deadly arrows? From the tower, the battle is impossible to judge. The ruler twists the royal signet ring on his finger nervously. Then, a ragged messenger races up the stair behind him, clutching a stained parchment. "Word from the general, your majesty," he pants.

4th Dimension (1977)

From the web:

4th Dimension is a very spacey-looking game with a small circular board divided into sectors each track of which has twice as many spaces as the one closer to the center. Each player get 6 warriors, 3 rangers, 2 guardians, and one time lord. Guardians can capture warriors and rangers; rangers can capture warriors; the time lord can capture rangers and guardians; but the lowly warriors are the only ones who can capture the time lord and win the game. Captures are made by moving next to rather than on top of enemy pieces. Each piece can move only one space at a time but they can also "warp" by leaving the board and leaving a 4-D marker behind. The piece can then stay in the warp zone for up to three turns or warp back onto the board up to two spaces away from the 4-D marker. This game has an inconveniently small gameboard and plastic pieces that look like little futuristic chairs.

The game was first published in Games & Puzzles magazine. The designers produced it as a standalone game later the same year, and it was later licensed by TSR.

Elminster's Ecologies (1994)

From the back of the box:

An Excerpt from
An Investigation into the Natural System of Organisms and Their Surroundings
by Elminster of Shadowdale

     The world is vast and varied, comprising towering mountains, dense jungles, and sprawling seas. There are regions so cold that their snow never melts, others so hot that their rain turns to steam as it touches the ground.
     It is this variety of environments that accounts for the variety of life. In my travels I have noted 73 distinct types of pine trees. . . . I estimate the number of fishes at well over five thousand. The number of insect species likely exceeds the number of grains of sand on the shores of Dragon Reach.
     Every environment, no matter how hostile to humankind, is compatible with some form of life. The diversity and adaptability of organisms are staggering. . . .

Within this set are nine booklets. Eight of them, each written by an expert in the area, describe various ecological niches on the continent of Faerun. Begin by reading the Explorer's Manual, which:

• introduces the reader to the organization of the eight area-specific booklets
• contains the whole of the above excerpt from Elminster's work-in-progress about Realmsian biodiversity
• provides color-coded encounter tables for the eight other booklets along with instructions for their use.

Would-be travelers are advised to read well the information presented by the Sage of Shadowdale and his eight compatriots, and to memorize the Rules of the Rabbit. There are only three: A rabbit isn't always a rabbit. A rabbit doesn't want to be rich. A rabbit doesn't always stay put. An explanation? You'll find it in the Explorer's Manual. Read on, thou hearty adventurer!

Traveling long distances is the constant lot of the adventurer.

The fifth is a leader of the Harpers and a legendary bard in her own right, and the sixth is a dead - perhaps undead - witch. And the seventh? She's the on who wild tales are whispered about all across Faerun around many a fireside late at night.

Vampire Fleets (1995)

The Virus sourcebook

From the back of the book:

Striking Back!

Throughout the bleak night if The Collapse, the long dark shapes of warships, scoured clean of organic life, still prowled the now-lonely space lanes and cast their deadly shadows over half a thousand worlds. Imbued with malignant intelligence, and a taste for apocalyptic violence, the vampire fleets methodically finished the work that the first wave of Virus infection had so haphazardly begun. After seventy-five years, humankind finally stood back against the edge of the abyss, only one more short step seperating them from oblivion.

Passive defense is no longer enough. If humankind is to reclaim the stars, it wil have to be past the ruptured hulls and shattered computer brains of the vampires. Defeating the vampire fleets is a task of nearly impossible scope and difficulty, but the journey of a thousand miles by an entire species begins with a single step by a small band of people.

Vampire Fleets is a sourcebook for Traveller. Its focus is on Virus and its continuing impact on the universe of the New Era. The actual source material is broken down into three important sections.

Vampire Fleets
What motivates them, where they are encountered, their capabilities, behaviors, strengths and weakness.

A world completely controlled by Virus-infected machines, it's working starporta vital link in the chain of the vampire highway.

Robot Design
