The Overlord and His Disciples: Gods who forged the Steel Alliance, saved humanity from destruction, and took us to the stars, but they are not without their own failings that led to the banishment of two of their kind. Universe Guide 2 – The London Metropolice: An ancient and proud law enforcement organisation adapting to a new future. Learn how the law is enforced in a world where the gods are very real. Universe Guide 3 – The Agency: A reborn intelligence and interstellar investigations agency that is seeking redemption for causing the Civil War that broke the old Steel Alliance.

Learn how to carry out daring espionage missions that can decide the fate of entire worlds! Universe Guide 4 – London & Soho: A detailed guide to the most ancient surviving city of humanity: London, a densely packed urban mountain of Citadels and underblocks where people live their lives in the shadows of ancient glories.
