What is said in cannon literature about the humans of the states rimward of the consulate? what are they and who are they?
Merging the Human forums
Since there was no recent postings in the Solomani forum, it has now been merged with the Zhodani forum into a Humaniti forum. Feel free to post anything about the Vilani or the Darrians, or whatever Human race You like now.
Generating Zhodani Worlds
[Just discovered these boards - hi everyone!]
I’ve asked this question in other fora (and even emailed Marc Miller!) but haven’t got a good answer yet. According to MM, the constraints of Zho society are incompatible with low pop worlds. This doesn’t seem to agree with the world generation rules in the Zhodani Alien Module (pop 1D+4 if starport X, else 2D-2). What are the correct rules to use? Should it be 1D+4 *except for* starport X (giving a flat probability distribution of pop 5 to A)?
Berka, I know you’ve got a Zhodani option in your subsector generator – what does it use?

Zhodani Governments
Considering the notion that zhodani government is fairly structured and detailed wouldn’t you agree that the System governments are either a: 3) self perpetuating oligarchy (i am more inclined to agree with this form tan any other) 4) representative democracy, 6) captive government for colonies and captures systems, C) charismatic oligarchy (everybody is on prozac). Any comments?
Solomani Poll
After 101 votes, the Solomani IMTU poll is now closed.
In TATU (The Average Traveller Universe), we kind of like the Terran Space Nazis…
See the results here, and compare it with the other polls.
The new poll is about gearheadedness.
Zhodani Corporations
Okay this is a weird…how would one work , who would own it, could proles or intnedants run there own companies? Also anybody have a pocket zho corp of their own?
Proles
Does anybody have an opinion on proles developing their Psion abilities later in life (but also keeping with book three a reduced psi strength and ability). With ambition being quoted in many of the texts about the zhodani.. what would you say if a hard working zhodani prole with a PSi of 5 decieds to save his money and have after hours classes on psionic development.. he manages over the years to achieve a limited break through in telepathy ( the easy one and clairvoyence ) {example Telepath 3 and clairvoyant -4) is he still a prole since he wasn’t trained at youth? … does it create a class struggle issue with in cannon about the zhodani? I am just musing about it… besides I never agreed with the proles being completely non-psionic … Fresh fruit? Rotten produce?
Missing HOME!
I remembered seeing “HOME” on the mail atlas and in the Solomani Rim moduals. But not in the GAL24 mapping system or any databases I came accross.
