History of the Imperium Working Group - Australia
Hi All,
David Schneider here, former Regional Co-ordinator of HIWG Australia.
To begin with: Vale Clayton R Bush (passed: June 12, 2007) & Vale Chuck Kallenbach II (passed October 1, 2025). Both these men were mentors and generous to a young man in far off Australia. I am still saddened at their passing. As all this was pre-internet, I never actually met or spoke with either man, and yet they were generous friends (Clay left me some stuff in his will). Chuck I have only recently discovered in some YouTube videos!
I am currently going through some stuff (marriage breakdown, Long COVID Symptoms, leaving my job in an Emergency Department after 24 years due to a variety of reasons (ie: health), etc and so forth). To try and keep myself sane I have dug up the old HIWG Australia archives, created a Facebook page, and have been uploading items from the old archives.
It's literally called: "History of the Imperium Working Group - Australia"
I have, thus far, uploaded:
All the Yiklezdanzh Sector material that we generated.
All the Starburst newsletters that I have been able to locate.
Light panel (Light bulb) jokes.
Some bits sent to me by Chuck Kallenbach II.
A few period letters.
I will add some other bits and bobs as I go. The primary goal is to preserve the work of the HIWG - Australia team. If anyone is interested in using the material for your own campaigns, you have my blessing.
Anyone wanting to contact me should do so via the HIWG - Australia FB page.
