My Homebrew World Idea

[Sir Elton]

Elton,

Now I've had time to think this over its a good starting point and would allow a lot of flexibility in the sorts of games that could be run, e.g. low tech travellers encountering a high tech civilization, high tech characters going to 'civilize' the lower tech areas or use their technological edge to carve out an empire.

In some aspects there are things I remember from Metmorphosis Alpha and Gamma World of the high tech remants though you've mixed in a lot of pure fantasy elements.

Of course I remember Arthur C. Clarkes quote: Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Thanks Monster Mash! Most player characters adventuring in this world would see a "savage" world not unlike REH's Hyborian Age. Others who come from the High Tech cities (actually, only 2 are really populated by humans) see a world that needs to be tamed through the application of science. Of course, any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic; one group may see another group and assume that the laser pistol he is using is essientally a weird looking magic wand.
