I've noticed that an awful many old great Stars!-websites aren't available anymore. It has even become difficult to find such fundamental works like the Stars! Official Strategy Guide. And on http://www.starsfaq.com/ the link to the Guide is broken, too.

Thus I have created a site from where it can be viewed online or downloaded for cozy offline reading:

http://stars.arglos.net/

Or to go directly for the Stars! Official Strategy Guide:

online: http://stars.arglos.net/articles/ssg/ssg.htm
zipped: http://stars.arglos.net/download/ssg.zip (as ssg.zip, 1314 kb)

I can guarantee that the link will be valid for several years and if the mods or admin want to include it to the link listings of ah or wherever you feel it convenient, feel free to do so. And if one is indeed updating the list of links on http://starsautohost.org/epsilon42.htm, well, what about updating all the other links as well? Most aren't existing anymore, others have changed. While all this links are already on my site above, ah would be a much better place. Alternatively we could make a sticky thread for uptodate links. My suggestion would be the following:

Stars-R-Us Article Database: still the best collection of Stars! strat&tact articles
http://www.starsfaq.com/articles/stars-r-us_article.htm

The Stars! FAQ: Home of FAQs and a huge collection of articles. A must to read
http://www.starsfaq.com/

rec.games.computer.stars: The old and still alive Usenet group, now hosted at Google.
http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.computer.stars

The Stars! Directory: The directory of Stars! websites (not updated since years)
http://aaedesigns.com/stars/

Small Collection of Strat & Tact, among other things: the Stars! Official Strategy Guide
http://stars.arglos.net/

Stars! Strategist: home of the Strategist mapping tool
http://www.stars-strategist.com

Pirates Retreat: home of the Xtreme Borders mapping tool
http://www.pirates.retreat.btinternet.co.uk/indexpr.htm

Lots of player tools, Stars!-versions and patches on autohost itself:
http://starsautohost.org/kn2050.htm

Finally new serial codes are given out and hopefully this leads to some new players... who need to get a grip on the game and we should offer them to make use of the great wealth of information the Stars!-community has collected in the past. For getting a serial number to play Stars!, see: http://starsautohost.org/sahforum/index.php?t=msg&th=115 8&rid=1&S=61fac869d52c83dced0186aa5dfbe475&pl_vi ew=&start=0#msg_29817

{mod edit: made this a sticky}
