Nope, they were merely in the pre-production process of the second of three instalments when the line got the ax. In a nut shell, the new CEO's relationship with the Buck Rogers property got that product forced into the equation, so in the interest of self-interest the best thing to do was eliminate the comptetition.

The rest of the nut shell? Said CEO was the female version of Jimmy Wichard from King of the Hill: 

Shadow shack refers to Zebs

As for AD Schick in an interview by fans described A/B skills

I believe the original draft was called Alien Worlds. It was very sandbox. The core 5 were intended as PCs including the sathar which were the amoral ferengi stab you in the back version presented in Dragon as a PC race.

Cook wont talk about it. He gave me an interview for the 25th aniversary but in other emails to him he stopped talking to me when I tried to bring it up.

This is the project where we worked on figuring out what that Zero edition of the game looked like:

Also in an telephone interview with Matt Crymbal I remember something about the ifshnits that didn't make it into the magazine article we published: the name ifshnits was developed from "little sh!t" which was a reference to a PC someone was playing I believe.

Also another tidbit:

When we say that Schick signed off on the McCamerron class shuttle he actually signed a copy of the convention poster, which pictured the shuttle, that they mailed to him and this was presented to Albin Johnson at the con. And in the teleconference phone interview he endorsed it as official SF material.

 

Well, "Zeb" Cook actually wrote a couple of other SF related stories for Aries and Dragon magazine. One story was an alien world generator, another was the S'sessu article, and at least a third was providing some additional equipment such as rules on regeneration and cloning.

But, he certainly didn't contribute much more beyond that.

Knowing that he originally intended the sathar/sessu to be a playable race I view that ares article to be a recycle of material they had laying around. Not an active support for it.

"Encounters" in Polyhedron #9 is very early work. polyhedron #9 lacks a publication date but the ESP section mentions GEN CON XV and this being the Holiday issue I'm guessing it was Nov or Dec of 1982

Knowing that he basically declined any future involvment in Star Frontiers I find this Encounters article interesting in that It endorses the existance of PGC implying that the first mega corp was part of His and Schick's work, an ancient alien city on the dusty barren surface of Laco making it his invention even though we dont learn the name of that civilization till Zebs guide, We have an Ul-mor and his loper mount suggesting agian that the Volturnus Campaign/ planet/setting was concieved and developed by Cook and Schick- (Crash on volturnus is credited: Mark Acres and Tom Moldvay with Doug Niles) so despite that if its true that Cook effectively stayed away from Star Frontiers he certainly had a huge influence on the seminal campaign- Volturnus. Below is a link to the Polyhedron pdf available on the web if you do not have it.

 

Yes, we could have Monty Python's Quest for the Alien Worlds.

That's kinda what the subject of this topic implies one will find inside. And one is disappointed...

I admire your optimisim. 

It doesn't sound like we will ever see this unless one of Schick's campaign players starts talking.  It wouldn't surprise me though if the biggest revelations have already been revealed.
