Invasion Trilogy

The first supplementary edition, Invasion 2088 (originally
Galaxian Invasion), added in twelve new wrestlers such as
Spike and Bishop Hell, bringing the total to thirty six
wrestlers in all.

Invasion 2089 (originally Invasion II) saw the addition of
managers to the game, including Reynard B. Guile and the
first valet, Sweet Thing. Invasion 2089 also featured the
first in-game retirement, as Omega stepped away from
wrestling to manage, though he still got into the ring from
time to time against rival manager The Royal Overlord.
Invasion 2090 was released and became the first set to
feature new cards for existing wrestlers, establishing that
wrestlers in CotG would grow and change over time.

War Games Trilogy

The game's next phase began with the War Games 2091 edition,
considered by many fans to be arguably the best set to date.
Many of the characters included in the set became long-
lasting fan favorites and War Games also marked the first
time that an overall storyline connected the game editions
sharing their name.

War Games 2092 saw the game releases from twelve to ten
cards per game edition, but the releases moved from once a
year to twice a year. War Games 2092 also saw the debut of
popular and controversial wrestler Chaos. Omega's retirement
also became official in 2092 when he received a new card
that had no wrestling information on the back.

War Games 2093 followed that up with the debut of Chaos'
arch-rival and brother of Star Warrior, Alpha Force. This
set also marked the first time that a wrestler, Exo-King,
was removed from the storylines, though it was only for a
one year sabbatical.

Sudden Death Two Part Series

The game years of 2094-95 ushered in Sudden Death, which
featured the first game editions not drawn by Chuck Carter,
who was replaced on these sets by Larry Snelly, but also saw
the beginning of Special Edition cards. The Special Edition
cards, initially, were new art for old pics, often in
response to fan complaints about the original pieces. They
also occasionally featured slightly tweaked game statistics,
though this didn't become prevalent until later. Sudden
Death also introduced fan voting to the game, as players
took a direct hand in the outcome of CotG storylines by
telling Tom Filsinger who was winning feuds in their feds,
with a wrestler from each losing team being banished for two
years.

Sudden Death was created as a way to make the game even more
interactive, as well as reduce the GWF roster, which many
felt was getting too large.

Sudden Death 2094 also featured the first female wrestler
card, as Sweet Thing became Ms. Liberty, though she didn't
have anyone to wrestle until the following game year when
Cassandra debuted.

Sudden Death 2095 is also considered one of the best sets
released, and it produced many fan favorite characters as
well, including Raven, Jack of Diamonds and Pegasus.

Sudden Death 2094

Beginning the deadliest tournament in GWF history! The
losers will be banished! And here comes Dreggs and the New
Order to challenge the Gladiators!

'mailing in' result balloting with NINE wrestlers from
losing teams being banned from future game editions. Larry
Snelly also assumed the position of card artist.

Revolution Trilogy

The post-Sudden Death series was called Revolution and
lasted three sets. A new storytelling tactic was integrated
at this stage, when Revolution 2096 shipped alongside
Classics 2079, the first game edition to look back at the
GWF history that had been hinted at but never explored. New
characters would be introduced in Classics sets, like
Morpheus, only to resurface in the current GWF storylines a
set or two later. Parallel story concepts also emerged, such
as Star Warrior and Thantos' reunion in 2096 coinciding with
the Classics 2079 set's depiction of them as a young tag
team just debuting.

The GWF Promoter, CotG's official newsletter, began having
more of an influence on the game at this point, with the
exclusive, subscriber-only release of two game cards, The
Draconian Sheik and Johnny Rocket's Launching Pad.

Revolution 2098 was another controversial step in the
direction of science fiction as Colossus, a cyborg who could
duplicate the finishers of his opponents, debuted. This set
also featured art by Mike Gustovich, a comic book artist
whose work so failed to impress that he only ever did one
full set.

The Revolution series seemed more to be a set-up for the
next arc, Civil War.

Revolution 2096

Here comes trouble! Aethran ex-con Vengeance becomes the new
leader of the Gladiators! Who can stop this sick and
demented fighter?

Civil War

The premise of the Civil War series dramatically shook up
the GWF in that it realigned the team feuds that had been so
prevalent throughout the game's history and set up new
rivalries. It turned the villainous, yet extremely popular,
Gladiators (Brute, Massacre and Spike) into anti-heroes and
reunited them with former ally and GWF Icon Wolf. This set
was also the first to be drawn by prolific, yet
controversial, artist Brian Bendis, who has since gone on to
fame as writer of Jinx, Powers, Ultimate Spider-man, New
Avengers and House of M. Among the complaints about Bendis'
art were his heavy use of shadow and his frequent omission
of pupils.

The fan interaction continued to grow, as the first wrestler
created by a fan, Kati the Samoan Warrior, debuted in 2099
as the winner of the GWF Promoter's first Create a Wrestler
contest.

Civil War 2100

The Gladiator Civil War continues with the awesome Overkill
entering the GWF! It's Overkill & Thunder against Brute &

MegaTournament

In the vein of Sudden Death, the Megatournament was a huge
competition that covered the next two years and placed the
outcome in the hands of GWF promoters once more, as three
influential managerial leaders, Omega, Morpheus and Magnus
Colby placed their futures on the line in the
Megatournament, with the loser being banished "forever".

The tenth anniversary of Champions of the Galaxy also
occurred at the beginning of this storyline, and was
celebrated with the release of the GWF Birthday Bash, as set
filled with undercard bums and controversial figure Blazing
Skull, a fiery-headed demon who could end the careers of his
opponents!

Megatournament 2101

A new blood feud begins in the GWF when Wraith and the

________________________________________________________________

Sudden Death II

The second Sudden Death tournament began, and the seeds were
laid for the next, HUGE story arc as the Colby-Pelf
Corporation began solidifying its base as a group of
"insurgents" trying to upset the power base of the GWF in a
story eerily similar to the WCW-nWo storyline that had yet
to begin. Sudden Death 2103 also featured the death of a
wrestler for the first time, as rookie Crossfire, introduced
in 2102, was killed in the ring with Blazing Skull, a move
designed to end the restrictions on Blazing Skull and place
him firmly in the GWF.

The Birthday Bash was followed up at this time with Son of
Bash, which featured more undercard bums, an Iceman-like
character named Blizzard and a revealing look at GWF
wrestler Star Warrior's descent into a vigilante-like
personality as Avenging Warrior.

The first GWF Promoter Create-A-Tag Team contest winners
were also announced in this period, and the duo of Comedy
and Tragedy (Theatre of Pain) debuted as the most popular
Promoter Wrestler contest winners to grace CotG.

The headline feud saw Omega's comrade Commander Sam betray
him, but it was all revealed to have been a plot of former
hero and dark sorcerer Mesmer, whose plan was foiled by his
mentor from Dimension X, Phantast. Mesmer revealed he had
been operating at the behest of Magnus Colby, but was
double-crossed by Colby when he failed to get Colby's former
ally Chaos banished from the GWF.

CPC

The CPC storyline featured the emergence of a second
federation trying to challenge the GWF for control, by
stealing away their stars and leeching off their name value.

The CPC series ran four game years and featured a massive
roster of wrestlers encapsulating two federations. It
feature old alliances being shattered as partner turned on
partner, and shocking twists such as GWF posterboy Wolf
attempting to join the CPC, only to wind up a true renegade
when that fell through and he was left without allies on any
side.

The storyline culminated with Star Warrior bringing together
an all-star squad of some of the biggest names in GWF
history to battle Thantos' Penthouse Suite line-up in
arguably the most star-studded feud in CotG history.

Finally, at the beginning of the 2109 set, the GWF obtained
a court order forcing the CPC to operate independently of
them, and forcing wrestlers to choose a fed to work for.
This launched the CPC as its own distinct fed, and its
history from that point is covered below.

The End

The conclusion of the Federation Wars between the GWF and
CPC saw several prominent CPC stars remain in the GWF to act
as a thorn in their sides, while several GWF stars who had
been lost in the shuffle of the GWF relocated to the CPC.

The End 2109 was also doubled up with GalactiCon Bash 2109,
which featured a slew of women's wrestlers and the first
card ever "kinda" drawn by game creator Tom Filsinger, Sir
Ender, an undercard bum based off an unfinished sketch that
Tom attempted to finish up.

The End also introduced President Cordanus of the UFSP, an
avid, anti-wrestling politician seeking to shut the GWF
down, citing sadistic and sometimes evil wrestlers like the
Gladiators and Aethra and the Brymstonians. This storyline
coincided with a real-life crossroads for game creator Tom
Filsinger, who was reaching a turning point: Continue the
game and place a glass ceiling on his career as a college
professor, or end the game and advance in academia.

The End actually became a new beginning as Cordanus
succeeded in shutting the GWF down, but not "ending"
anything. Several GWF superstars headed to another
Dimension, Dimension Y, where they found themselves among a
small colony of humans on Centra. GWF star Mandrill
threatened to take over, and the Centrans rallied with
wrestlers of their own such as Cpl. Aegis and The SWAT Team
(Trench and Warfare).

The zombified ruler of Centra, Murdok, emerged from his
torpor and allied with Mandrill against his own people,
while back in Dimension K Omega lobbied hard to get
wrestling reinstated. The activity in both Dimensions were
monitored by Phantast.

This period also featured a renewed synergy between the GWF
Promoter and the game editions as a murder mystery began in
The End 2110's handbook and played out through the pages of
the Promoter when GWF Hall of Fame legend Massacre was
poisoned.

The End 2109

Thantos stuns the galaxy by bringing Omega's third son,
BLOODLINE, to the GWF! How will his brothers, Star Warrior
and Alpha Force, cope? Worse, President Cordanus of the UFSP
vows to shut down the GWF!

Takeover

Omega succeeded in getting wrestling reinstated in late
2111, and the GWF stars returned home, with news of
Massacre's death. Phantast revealed that it was a conspiracy
of three: That mad scientist Doomsayer had colluded with
Vengeance and Mayhem, Massacre's own allies, to poison and
kill him. In exchange, Doomsayer was owed a Gladiator to be
delivered to him by Vengeance.

The GWF homecoming was also spoiled by former UFSP President
Cordanus who revealed that, as a loophole of his shutdown of
the GWF, he had actually transferred ownership to himself
and he now retained that ownership. Former GWF media
personality and CPC defector Qualitar revealed the source of
Cordanus' hatred: Back in 2104, he had been a fledgling
wrestler who had grown frustrated at what he perceived was a
lack of support by his GWF heroes.

The GWF Promoter released four limited edition cards at this
time, including Cordanus in his wrestling persona from 2104,
Doomsayer's promised Gladiator known only by his rank of P3,
and part time stars Bust Up and Necros.

Takeover 2112

Sudden Death III

Cordanus played divide and conquer, manipulating the heroes
and villains into a true civil war to see who would run each
camp, while he solidified his camp to combat the winners.

He also brought back dark sorcerer Mesmer, a controversial
move to game fans, in that his playing card was a sorcerer
that used magic to influence the outcomes of matches.
Phantast emerged to combat Mesmer, casting spells to
counteract Mesmer's magic.

In 2114 Cordanus' Takeover team faced a GWF Coalition of
heroes and villains led by Star Warrior and they emerged
victorious, forcing Star Warrior out of the GWF.


Sudden Death 2113

Revelations and the Cosmic Battle

The next four game years proved to be hugely controversial,
as the demonic beings from the Fourth Realm and their nearly
celestial beings from the Second Realm debuted in 2115 and
2116, plunging the GWF into an over the top sci-fi/fantasy
battle that left the fate of all reality at stake. The
stakes gradually escalated until it encompassed the beings
from Centra as well as the enigmatic Endgame, who first
claimed to be from Dimension X, but was later revealed to be
from Corvus in Dimension K.

Finally, a cancerous force named Maramus emerged to lead his
Serpents of Evil, and his presence also saw tremendous
changes take place in the galaxy, including a galactic
depression.

Good eventually triumphed, Maramus was banished, virtually
everyone was restored to their home dimensions, and the GWF
roster was dramatically shrank to only twenty eight male
wrestlers, the smallest roster since the original set was
released.

This move also launched aCe, a third ongoing line of CotG
game editions featuring the beings of Centra
