Thanks for the answers, that helps a lot. Mainly with my own immersion when I'm writing and describing things, and getting an idea of what kind of tech-level the setting is at.

Also, as an aside, I have the tabletop RP book that image is from; the game it's from got me into roleplaying many, many years ago, and my regular group and I still use it now.
