@Lilfluff - I remember you talking about that, a while back - I think it sounds interesting too, though I have no idea how you'd actually go about it IC. I've been puttering around with a moderately house-ruled (xp costs for improving skills changed, costs for improving stats set instead of being gm fiat or nothin', a few new psi skills and mecha systems, a new TECH substat called Spark that interacts with most TECH and INT skills in ways anyone familiar with Girl Genius should be able to guess, though lacking the mind control-y aspects) Mekton SI for a little while now, with a character generation "episode minus one" fairly well complete, then getting tossed into the Mekton Wars I: Invasion Terra campaign with the scripted-to-lose prologue as "episode zero: tutorial level" and a few notes on what to do if I ever get through all thirty-something scenarios plus bridging episodes/interstitial adventures.
(Basically, the love interest says, "Computer, save and end program," at the end of the epilogue scene, and everything but SI turns out to have been a Star Trek holonovel, with SI now real becasue lolQ or whatever. And still operating by Mekton rules, despite now being in Trek, where the ship construction system (ala FASA's Starship Tactical Combat game) is both far less versatile and rather more expensive. Most likely in Voyager, because no one cares if you murder that series.)
