A most essential treatise on galactic conquest, gentlemanly mayhem & the dastardly art of being better than everyone else. This is a unique and comprehensive guide to creating outlandish, interplanetary adventures compatible with the fifth and fifth-and-a half editions of some game with dragons and other silly, scientifically unfounded elements.
Lo, dear reader, you hold in your trembling, unworthy hands the most splendiferously destructive tome ever committed to print—an indispensable guide to scientific savagery and gentlemanly gunnery, meticulously compiled for the ambitious space farer, the beleaguered colonial governor, and the enterprising despot alike!
Arm yourself with an Infallible Aether Oscillator, don your best tweed-lined pressure suit, and embark upon heroic escapades of expansionist exuberance, safe in the knowledge that all who stand before you shall be vaporized into their constituent atoms.
Curious about combat etiquette when duelling a seven-limbed Prussian squid-man? We have it covered! In need of sound tactical advice for storming a stronghold of the insufferable Venusian insurrectionists? Consider it done! Struggling to defend your honour after a regrettable misunderstanding involving an ambassador’s wife, a misfired disintegration ray, and an excessively lubricated diplomatic function? Good heavens, man, we even have a section for that!
So strap in, charge up, and prepare to wage Science upon the stars—for this book is not merely a collection of rules… it is your first-class ticket to unfathomable glory, unthinkable carnage, and a lifetime supply of interstellar indignation!

It is an honour and a treat for any creator of fantastical fiction to have someone enjoy your work, but to have it so lovingly crafted into the pastime that shaped my teenage years is a dream come true.
The fictional universe that (barely) contains Dr Grordbort's Infallible Aether Oscillators is the brainchild of Wētā Workshop Concept Designer Greg Broadmore. It all started as a series of drawings and acrylic paintings that Greg made. Richard Taylor and Greg conceived the idea to bring these fantastical weapons to the unsuspecting public and the first three Rayguns saw the light of day in 2007. Since then, Greg and Wētā Workshop have released a cosmic cornucopia of books, artwork and rayguns both miniature and full-sized, to keep your interplanetary enemies at bay. www.drgrordborts.com
