[Spaceships] GURPS EVE, and related ideas . . .

[vicky_molokh]

Greetings, all!

The first time I stumbled upon this idea, I thought it almost ridiculous, but another GM pointed out that it can be done with a certain level of open-mindedness and changed concepts. Now, I'm not planning to do it anytime soon (I've got a totally different campaign to prepare!), but:

Has anyone considered a campaign where each PC has his/her/its own spaceship, and spaceships are so highly automated that they only need one pilot/captain? The base assumptions are that such captains are millionaires, and their jobs are highly profitable and highly demanding (so much that most pilots are essentially parahumans). Of course, most physical disadvantages will be irrelevant, and some traits will be essential.

Furthermore, the ability to change ships depending on mission/job demands adds variety to the game.

Thanks in advance to anybody willing to discuss the topic!
