    Reimagine the OTU!

    I would do two things (which I am doing in my campaign) 1. Update the technology to a believable level 2. Dump the nobility/empire as currently depicted and rebuild it as a technocracy with titles being merely political titles or just honorary.

    I found the site selling the Wiesman deckplans after a quick google of "Subsidized Liner" this is very close to what I need for my campaign. Thank for the info.
