In creating my story, I looked, first and foremost at the game, deciding what bits to leave in, and what bits to leave out. But I also looked to Science fiction, in particular the Star Wars Universe. Here is a selection of pictures that inspired me to write bits of the story. Click on the little image to see a large one.

As well as looking at pictures, some of the space action in the novel is inspired by the Unreal conversion "Uspace". Check them out!

towers, which the Avenger turned into a crater. It is also to me, THE escape pod.
