It did strike me as an odd combination, what with the tech changes. But, on the other hand, the whole technology aspect is still kinda being worked out.

I mean, while we can't use magic, presumably because of strange uber-weapons, there's a point where tech will do the same practical thing.

A rose by any other name and all that...

So, you might want to use caution in putting a whole lot into anything involving tech in the rp stuff, as it is so volitile right now.
