Games - Shatterzone (461 words) |
| The Shatterzone universe shares much in common with the old Star Wars Roleplaying Game produced by the same company and was a repository for original ideas produced for Star Wars but which were turned down by the legal department of Lucasfilm. |
| The namesake feature of the setting is the Shatterzone, an unchartable and mysterious sector of space consisting of dark matter and strange gravitational phenomena as well as strange energy storms and asteroid fields. |
