Re: [Space] and [UT] for New Space Opera
In GURPS Space: - Settings aren't likely to be High Industrial, but are likely to be High Biotech, High Cybertech and High Nanotech all at the same time. pp. 50-51.
- Leisure Societies p. 183 and Macro-Life p. 191 are both common tropes.
- Machine Civilizations p.200 are common especially those which include humans and other biological creatures as partners (or pets) of the AIs.
- Modified Humans, Uplifted Animals, Robots and AIs, and Aliens pp. 216-218 are common characters. Aliens are as likely to be as modified as humans are. Psionic Mutants aren't common, though, as psi is definitely retro.
