- Synopsis
- Fifty years ago, the Peace Authority took control of governments worldwide with a radically new weapon. The bobbler encased its targets in an impenetrable force field sphere. No government had control of its large scale weapons. With the threat of the bobbler to back it up, the Peace Authority banned use of all high energy and high tech activities. Then came the plagues, and most of the world's population was destroyed. With the reduced population and the Peace Authority bans, humanity was reduced to a handfull of feudal states. But a few oldsters from the days before the Peace Authority, including the inventor of the bobbler himself, have secretly managed to keep some science and some technology still available. Could this be enough to overthrow the Peace Authority?
