With that I'll be preparing to make work on the OOC, as well as gladly ask you, Willy, to be a co-GM. Any thoughts?
[/quote]Yeah, sure. Also I'll try to limit my techspeak to avoid scaring players away.

On the other hand I wonder if I can get your help running this game:

It requires you to be knowlegable in a few popular fictions. Also it'd feature direct GM actions and updates so it'd be somewhat work intensive.
Equal to as if you'd be an active player in the game.
But this is exactly why I need co-GM assistance. There are about twice as many players than what I can manage.

Well dang if that isn't the most badass means of transportation.
[/quote]So awesome there are several different variations to this method. They sacrifice efficient energy use with the simplicity of the bombs. 

To be fair though our car engines work by well-cycled rapid series of gasoline explosion so this sorts of propulsion is more common than you'd think. There's also a law in sci-fi that the power of a ship engine is directly proportional the technology's potential use as a weapon. The back end of the torchship doubles as a deadly weapon for anyone unfortunate to be caught in the way of the jet. So these things would be unlikely to end in civilian hands unless there's a rigorous control at their use (special licenses, heavy standards and regulations, tight surveillance, etc).
