Theirs was a tough existence, but it produced a people both proud and resilient. Their history is one of internal and external conflict; wars for dominance of the Sword Worlds and wars against the Imperium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSword Worlds details the people of the Sword Worlds Confederation as they have never been seen before. Their motivations, their strengths and their weaknesses – along with the truth behind Imperial stereotypes of reckless spacegoing chauvinists, and the darker side of their culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book examines how the worlds of the Confederation interact with one another, and how a technologically outmatched people have managed to stave off Imperial dominance for so long. Their armed forces are technologically simple yet incredibly resilient; their navy is very different to that of the Imperium. Minelayers, torpedo boats and orbital defence platforms defend the home worlds whilst battlecruisers raid deep into enemy territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSword Worlds reveals secrets and little-known facts about the Sword Worlds Confederation. The Gimli endeavour, which strives to preserve Sword Worlds culture against any and all disasters; the Holmgang Compact, by which scores are settled illegally with honour. The Sword Worlders’ near-obsession with their tragic hero Admiral Denisov, and the Lost Swords – colonies that may still exist far beyond known space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sword Worlds Confederation is a complex place, and at times a dangerous one. The Sword Worlders themselves are misunderstood by outsiders but one thing is clear – they are proud and quick to anger, slow to forgive. The Sword Worlds is a region where only the brave should venture, and where courage is the key to success or a noble death… or perhaps both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-selected=\"false\" aria-controls=\"reviews\" data-collapsible=\"true\" role=\"tab\" id=\"tab-label-reviews\" data-role=\"collapsible\" aria-labeledby=\"tab-label-reviews-title\" class=\"data item title\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mongoose Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39382867247183,"sku":"MGP40038","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1380\/9101\/products\/swordworlds_3.jpg?v=1621619723","url":"https:\/\/leisuregames.live\/products\/traveller-sword-worlds","provider":"Leisure Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
