And, for the record, I am a fan of Phillip K. Dick.
Not all of it, but a lot of it.
I like stories where it is hard to define what is human, what is reality, where does consciousness begin and end.
But I am not going to put Transhuman Space-style biotechnology and all the rest of the metahuman issues that come with it into my own Star Trek Campaign.
Do we really want to put some kind of hacker/decker type onto a ship's bridge?
Do we really want to argue that transporters kill people, then create them from whole cloth, all the while ignoring the idea that as soon as a person-sized body is converted to energy, they are a multi-megaton explosion waiting to happen?
We could. Some might. Not here at my house.
I tell the story, the player role dice, and make the tough decisions, and we all cooperate, to share in the heroic episodes we make together.
I really want to see how the FASA STCS Mods work out for this NX Era. my players grew up with FASA, and it's development is significant to us, as a group.
