Wait a minute, just hold on while I put in my dentures and take a swig of
laxative.  You're goin' back a long way, sonny...

Starmaster was designed by Richard Lloyd.  It was run by Schubel and then
Lloyd in the U.S., and by Mitre Games in the U.K.  Probably others, as
well.  None of these folks are around any longer.

I think Richard Lloyd took back ownership of the game.  I also think he
ran an enhanced version called Starmaster II for a short time.  If you
really want to track down accurate answers, try to get in touch with
Lloyd.  I haven't spoken with him in ten years, so all I can give you is
a rather old address and phone number...

You'll probably have more luck if you just call him.

You can reach George Schubel at:

George Schubel

If you can't find Lloyd, then Schubel may be able to help.

I played Starmaster, and one of its best features was designing a race
during the set-up process.  Odyssey, the new fantasy PBEM from Gamer's
Den (info@den.com), offers the same thrill.  You have a set number of
points from which to put together a unique starting position.  Unlike
Starmaster, where you had just one crack at design, with Odyssey you can
keep sending in new designs until you're happy.  It takes the Odyssey
server about an hour to process a new design and get the results back to
you (most of this time is probably email transmission lag...).

Good luck!
