SM Science Fiction

System Mechanics for Campaigns of the Future
The defining ingredient of science fiction is the science – and by that, we mean the science that leads to the engineering that enables the industry that generates the commerce that lubricates the economy that inspires the social factors that opens the diplomacy that sparks the wars. In other words, it's often less about the gadgets and more about the impact they have on human society.

The Science Fiction Campaign Scenarios present speculative, near, mid and far-future social and technological frameworks with our version of the state of the world(s). The System Mechanics deal with technologies or task circumstances that may accompany those specific campaign parameters and settings.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) / Robotics

 * The range of AI and robotics from what already exists to far-future development, when to implement each level of development, what kind of scenarios it would likely have and how it would affect the campaign world.

Future Propulsion Methods

 * From electrostatic thrust to more exotic forms of EMG propulsion to the Science Fiction Holy Grail of Gravitics, it would be here from lifters to warp nacelles.

Destination Notes

 * From a tenuous Mars colony to a fully-terraformed planet 50 light years away, Speculation provides guidance on technology and rule sets in these environments.

Genetic Research and Development

 * On corrective or performance enhancing gene therapy, including both individual and germ-line rule suggestions.

Space Travel

 * From near-future hard science to Clarke's far-future technology indistinguishable from magic, points like communication, travel and effects of time dilation are handled here. This includes technology-based teleportation systems.
