How fast is the pickup? How much damage does it do if I ram it into the dragon?

Try running it and see what happens. You said you didn't want any extra rules, so you could just use your home town or someplace else you are familiar with as your location.

If you want something set in our world, just go ahead and run it, there are thousands of setting books already written.

Neon Dynasty is the only thing in this line WotC might potentially do. Que all the people coming to say "when I said a new setting, that's not what I meant!"

They are somewhat deadly for 2nd level characters.

Yeah, this looks promising.

It's a very big subject, you would need to read up on it if you are not a trained scientist. But the most important thing is clarity about how you derived your results. Note that you don't actually need to justify your results being meaningful or significant, you can leave that up to the readers...

Then my feedback is, it's usefulness depends on how scientific it is. Treated as a scientific paper, it could be very interesting/useful. Without that, it's just random dots and lines.

Speaking as a scientist, you really need to include your methodology, not just your results.

What might not be apparent to someone without a physics background is that when a spacecraft leaves the Earth, it's initially moving in the same orbit as the Earth, plus or minus a little bit due to fuel use. It's not a case of starting from "stationary" and moving in a straight line.

Nope, Venus is an inferior planet, which means it’s in the opposite direction to Mars. Direction in orbital mechanics being defined as up or down the gravity well. In order to move up the well you must use fuel to gain kinetic energy, in order to move down you have to burn fuel to lose it...

I like Written in Blood (Radiant Citadel) but it might not be the sort of thing your group likes.

I remember playing the Moria adventure. I guess it’s most notable for making Gandalf a cleric and Aragorn a ranger/paladin.

The 2nd edition Ravenloft idea that you need to neuter PC abilities is straight out of CoC. As I understand it, PCs in WoD are technically powerful, but the world is messed up and the PCs can’t do anything to fix it.

Sure, although I’ve never played WoD, so I cited the one I have played. Could probably cite WH40K as well, which has a similar vintage.
