Re: [RingworldRPG] "2300 AD" stellar data

I'm sure I've also seen the data on the net as an Excel file somewhere...
Also be sure to check out extrasolar planets on the web to keep up to date and fill in all those systems not visited by Beowulf and Lois et al. (unless of coarse like me you want to harken back to the classic stories of the 70's).

Subject: [RingworldRPG] "2300 AD" stellar data


General call for assistance:

I used to have a boxed role-playing game (not a computer game) entitled
"2300 AD", and it contained a star catalog. I would very much like to
get my hands on a copy of that catalog, as it contains positional data
dating from 1966, and thus would be invaluable in constructing a Known
Space star chart.

Unfortunately I seem to have lost my copy. I see it is now available on
CD in a .pdf file. Is there anyone here who has this file, or knows
someone who has it, who would be willing to share it with me?

... Never heard of that game, sorry. One big advantage of "2400 A.D."'s star list is that it has x, y and z coordinates, making mapping quite easy....
