Maybe Gurps Traveller. (Don't know, don't want to know about it)Most of the tech in Classic Traveller is from H. Beam Piper's novels from the 50s.  He was actually remarkably prescient when it comes to people (what's going on in the world today is straight out of one of his novels) but when it came to technology, he was pretty much behind the curve when it came to computers and weapons and manufacturing (which has a result of making spaceships very very expensive, and interstellar trade somewhat difficult).T20 is pretty much just like Classic Traveller in most things. I would love to see an updated verison of Fire Fusion and Steel for T20.</blockquote>
