In the [[Blue Planet]] continuity, the '''[[Gaian Effort]]''' is a radical ecoterrorist group that serves as a secondary antagonist to the [[United Earth Federation]] in [[Blue Planet: War in Heaven|War in Heaven]].

Shrouding the Light cemented Blaise Russel's reputation as a master of FreeSpace campaign design. Unusual in that it is both a Great War-era campaign and a Vasudan campaign, it combined a fresh look at existing FreeSpace history with imaginative and well-designed missions. It subsequently received an "expansion pack" in Shrouding the Light: Origins, a series of campaign vignettes serving as a loose prequel.
