Dy-No-MIITTTEEE!!!
I always thought the Southern Cross arc was underrated(though I thought it was the weakest of the three arcs)...but I loved their personal body armor(which has been the inspiration of a great many of my CyberKnights' personal gear)..
Ever considered using NEMA(though technically NOT a space-based empire) hardware(aside from the Glitterboys) as possible advanced prototypes in development by the Southern Cross(or others)? The Mastiff always looked like a good step up from the SC Battloids, while the Bulldog seemed to have RDF Gladiator Destroid ancestry....
Another question...will you be bringing in the Sims(from Manhunter) or any of the mutant animals from After the Bomb/Mutants in Orbit, and Rifts: Lone Star? Seems to me that such beings could easily be the result of illegal/borderline legal experiments in cloning by various organizations....super soldiers, planetary scouts, and disposable proxy-colonists...that would open up a whole ethical can of worms and conflicting opinions between the various nations/empires(The REF/Sentinels would be opposed to such unethical treatment, the Southern Cross might extend 'provisional' citizenship to such useful beings as Dog Boys(after a period of state-employment/indentureship), while the ATPDS/DC might officially be opposed, but secretly look the other way where business interests and political considerations prevail)...
