Appendix "G"

Appendix Gamma: Inspirational Material
In the spirit of Gary Gygax's Appendix N, list of inspiration, here's a few sources for inspiration in the Gamma strain. This list is a work in progress, and by no means exhaustive. I can't say I've read/seen all of those listed, but it's at least a good place to start with the genre overall. I tried to choose the source that had the most, best, or central jump-point for finding more info. Here's some additional thoughts on what gets included in Appendix G.
