Greetings everyone, welcome to contest #5 of the ULTRA mini-contest series. This contest will run from April 17th to May 1st.
This contest is: BEST ULTRA-HIGH TECHNOLOGY CONCEPT
The idea here is to develop a technology concept that is intended to be between EL 20 and EL 40. It can be a branch from a lower tech tree, or it can be an entirely new tree. While we have filled the first 20 ELs with a wide variety of branches and trees, after EL 20 there tends to only be more advanced versions of the same. At some point, we'll need more! If used, the submitter will also have his or her name put into the rules as a contributor for that item.
Parameters:
1. Must be a tech tree or branch, not a single item (unless there is a reason for it to be alone in the branch, it's all in the presentation).
2. Must contain some pseudo-science assumptions, a description of the concept, and any specific rules that it will need to be usable.
3. A conceptual tech tree is a plus, even if it isn't fully filled in.
4. Unique technologies to other game systems will have to be disqualified. Generic weapons (like a "disruptor") can go either way depending upon the description, but please no photon torpedoes or protoculture canons. We'll have to disqualify those submissions.
5. Each submission must be in a separate post.
Good luck!
If we need to make clarifications we will update this post.
