If you want to use the nation sheets already posted, then MissingAxis' Ouroboros would on the lower end of techs, while IcePick's is most definitely higher tier. We're not starting as sprawling space empires, so we're not looking at world ending Deathstar lasers or anything. Honestly? I'd recommend maybe pulling inspiration from genres like cyberpunk or maybe looking at technologies that we are estimated to have in the near future and taking those maybe a step up.

I feel it's a little unfair to IcePick to deny their sheet that would likely be otherwise accepted (at least that's how it seems to me at the moment), just because of a few new plot ideas that hit you all of a sudden. I do admit, sentient AI is for sure the kind of tech that's pushing the boundaries of the lower level starts we're having, but their sheet seems otherwise largely reasonable aside from the things I've mentioned earlier in the thread, both of which have been addressed/fixed.
