What happened? Wasn't there supposed to be an entire book that laid out the CK's and the Fallen Knights? Wasn't it supposed to be a dimension book? I know that this has probably been out there a long time but if there isn't a book specifically about the CK's where can I go to get information on them. Powers, Playing rules, history, plot hooks etc. Is there a Rifter that talked about them?
Help.

IIRC, the book originally advertised as Phase World: The Cosmo Knights ultimately became Phase World: Anvil Galaxy (or possibly Three Galaxies, but I think that was later).
The continuing Hammer of the Forge story is the only thing in the Rifter that has featured Cosmo Knights.

No I think there was to be a Cosmo Knight book....it was to also cover the different races in the Anvil Galaxy that live in the core regine of the galaxy. It wasn't the other books....

It was originally advertised as Phase World: The Cosmo Knights, but ultimately through various revisions and rewrites it became an entirely different book.

Yep. Unfortunately! That is the only book on them at this time. Maybe in the future!

Then you or Braden will have to write one. A quick 64 pager will do.

I do believe that after Dimensional Outbreak, Carl is done with the 3 G's for a while... and I have four Phase World books in various stages of production, none of which include the Cosmo-Knights. So you're out of luck there.
If anyone is really hurting for the now lost CK book, I suggest that you buy Seige on Tolkeen 4, and reppace the word Cyber-Knight with Cosmo-Knight... that should give you lots of ideas on how to spice up your Ck characters.

If that doesn't prompt you to buy it, I don't know what else I can say.

To be honest at this point I really don't have any ideas for the Cosmo-Knight. Right now the only thing I have an idea for is a B5 like space station. Maybe have it all mapped out with lots of adventure ideas, various shops, and interesting station personal. Don't get excited about this as I'm saving most of my ideas for Mechanoids Space. That should give you guys plenty of ammo for your space campaigns.

You are welcome. I'm hoping Braden may feel the need to do that book after his other four books have been published!

Does anyone know if an idea for a Cosmo Knight book has been submitted?
The only ones here that would know would be a PB staffer. All I know are the PW books done by Braden and I. I just keep an I on the press releases and murmurs. You could also ask in the next pod cast that Kevin is doing.
