Logan's Run/Fallout/Paranoia mashup

   Sounds insane, I'm sure. But the plot lines are coalescing, sone of the character rules are starting to come together.

Basically what we're dealing with is...

   A society that survived the cataclysmic 5th World War by creating a series of vaults. Where Super Computers would monitor outside conditions and alter the genetics of the Vault residents from generation to generation to produce the ultimate life form, best suited to survive in the maelstrom that exists outside the domes.
   About 3000 years into the vault program, the individual Super Computers developed self awareness and achieved true artificial intelligence. Of course, with intelligence and self awareness, comes self preservation and pride.
   The first level of warfare between domes was electronic. The logic bombs only took out the truly weak AIs. Then clever ones disconnected from Commnet long before the war started. The truly clever one, managed to go dark and hide.

   That's the fluff for the game so far. I know I'll be able to work in a genetic engineering mechanic into the character development. Character will be able to activate clones if their character dies. I don't have an idea on system yet. I'll need to do some looking for that. Please keep in mind this is a *VERY* rough idea. Lots of things can change between here and the finished project.

Happy Gaming!
