Earth, after some sort of mild technological-economic collapse, alien invasion light, or temporal hiccup?
Either way...very cool.

And the Turning of a Page"

Might be earth during the development of the rifts "Golden Age" but not Rifts of the CS not of CE's NEMA.

But a good portion of the bots look starwarsy and having the GA biologists messing with dino DNA before the rifts' coming would explain why there are dino in CS time w/o using the temporal timy whimy shifts.

May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.
Reading and writing (literacy) is how people on BBS interact.

if i had to guess, temporal oddity.

the first two might explain the mix of modern and future stuff.. but wouldn't explain the Dromaeosaur's, Hadrosaurs, and Tyrannosaur's

Commercial bio-engineering gone over the fence....Big dinoss for cattle(and Tyrannos for rich folk security) and they got loose.

Cool.
Zarathustra was extremely accurate. He was talking about you, man.
Whoops! Looks like I was wrong about where Mos Eisley's located.

Have a nice day.
