| I don't have to delve far for this into the mysteries of the psychoportive drive (maybe elsewhere) and related technologies, mostly the skills needed to operate them. I'll want to decide a few more basic concepts about starships. For Anne McCaffrey's SF, as a background influence, I have a rough idea that there's thriving private enterprise and only a moderately effective government, unable to prevent a lot of nasty pirates, raiders and lost colony ships, maybe a Federation of some kind. |
A commenter elsewhere kindly provided a
link to SPI Games' downloads for an early-ish science fiction game that among other setting elements, fits psions into the core technologies and social structure of the system (not as a ruling class, exactly, but not without sway either) in a way that looks familiar. Game design also shows interesting resemblances to much that came later, like our own game's skill system.
