IIRC there was the French Arm, Chinese Arm, and American Arm? Been
*quite* a while since I looked at it, though.
[Tomb] I think so, but USA was beaten down by WWIII. And their Arm was
less impressive than the French Arm. And, lesser known, the RCMP were
the principal military force on the Canadian Colony Doris. The Canadians
were the center of University and Higher Education and possibly even
less militant than today. And they had their own "Canadian Finger" off
(I think) the American or Chinese Arm.
The 2300 AD equipment books and their colonial atlas were excellent.
Star Cruiser was neat too, even if I found things too deterministic for
my taste.
Note, the Pentapods and the Savasku would also have got along fine. And
the CyberTech Earth sourcebook, though not quite as interesting as
"Cyberpunk" certainly did have some neat bits.
Sometime I'm gonna run some of this using GZG figs as a crossover at
ECC. This year, its Traveller. Next year, it may be 2300 AD.
