The Supplamental Fleet Series The Supplemental series is meant to provide new units to use in your games. Some of these units will be unique with their own history and a specific statline that is unique to that unit. The War against the Synod and their Fallen allies is so vast it is actually numerous wars and battles within the mind bogglingly vast holdings of the Universal Synod of Worlds. Within this enourmous framework literally anything can happen. There is room for any species or government with any level of technology you can imagine. Some of the PDFs in the series will be additions to already established factions and others will be for completely new factions that are not connected to the struggle between the Terrans and their Allies against the Synod in the Sol Sector. Marauders, Pirates, Interstellar Conquistadores, Mercenaries and Corporate Military Forces all fight for planets and resources within the galaxies controlled by the Synod. New races, new ships, new ground forces and new rules will all be placed in the context of these supplemental PDFs. Terran Fleet Units In this supplement are some fleet designs that did not make it into the Campaign Books but will be useful and will most likely show up in future Campaigns. —description from the publisher
