This week, as I looked at my list of active topics, I took note that there were no less then four separate threads that asked the question of what Dimension Book 9 was or is supposed to be, and what has happened or is happening with it.
This thread will answer your questions, because obviously, people are very concerned with the current hole in the Dimension book line. It would have outlined and described in detail the third most influential power bloc in the Three Galaxies, but for various reasons the initial version of the project failed to materialize.
Time passed. Then, about a year ago, after having written a few projects for Palladium Books, I was asked whether or not I might like to try and write a new version of it. At first, I was unsure that a book dedicated to a single power bloc was even needed. However, once I started taking a close look at all the established UWW material, I came up with an entirely new general concept, and once pitched to Kevin, it was approved.
Work is only just now beginning on United Worlds because even as I submitted my proposal, I was mired deeply in Thundercloud Galaxy which is going to kick butt, BTW with a smattering of Wormwood Addenda on the side a four-part expansion to Dimension Book 1 appearing this year throughout the Rifter. I have already talked about my overall idea for United Worlds on both of the Palladium-oriented podcasts, Echoes from the Rifts, and Gateway to the Megaverse, so I don't believe it would be any violation of my non-disclosure agreement to repeat it here.
That is to say, it is a collection of supernatural beings, and powerful mages in a space opera setting This is addressed in the book's introductory argument where I lay down the following, provable, premise: that everyone in the Three Galaxies believes in magic, but differs in how they justify that belief. For example, to highly technological and scientific societies, "magic" is simply a childish name for the cosmological constant; the unobservable, all-pervasive energy that binds the universe together.
They know it exists, but are unable to harness it unlike other intrinsic forces like light or gravity. Mystic cultures, of course, believe in magic as is normal for any "man of magic" OCC Finally, there is a minority of people who try to bridge these two schools of thought.
These are the techno-wizards and techno-smithies of the game setting. To anyone on the outside looking in, the UWW seems to have the highest technical capability around, for they have somehow learned how to harness the cosmological constant and put it to work. Their space fleet, while much smaller than either the CCW or the TGE, can use the tangents giant, orbital pyramids to leap form one star system to another in a few minutes, always able to be exactly when and where it is needed most.
They have instantaneous communication over galactic distances again, thanks to the harnessing of rifts , unsurpassed medical care, and even limited forms of time travel.
