Oh I agree with you on the cross-genre posting I have been working 
on all kinds of additional items that dont go with the Starship 
Troopers theme. In case I want to expand on a High-Tech theme a 
bunch.

gunpowder eating microbes, as a game balance thing.

I will still need to figure out how to get something closer to 
game balance in my setting. I will be taking in folk to help with 
play testing soon.
I have set up a Yahoo Group for this purpose if anyone is 
interested. I have dropped a bit of the information for character 
development, new equipment and new talents into the file section 
but am still a ways from finishing.
I changed standard TFT quite a bit in the Character Attributes 
portion by adding two additional Stats.

FT or fatigue tolerance basically the same as fST but now it 
handles a bunch of the xd6 vs. rolls and it is dealt with 
seperately when adding experience.

PA or psionic ability basically a toned down magic system of sorts 
this may or may not be an actual functioning ability for a 
character it depends on the beginning 2d6 roll and how many points 
the player is willing to expend on that attribute. It takes 3 
points to raise this attribute by one. You would need to see the 
Character development sheet to get a better idea of this.

I also added/changed the talent set up each character will have a 
Primary set of talents and a Secondary set of talents.

Primary talents are related to the character's proffesion. Primary 
talents equal the characters IQ.
Secondary talents can be but are usually not directly related to 
the character's profession. Secondary Talents are equal to half 
the characters IQ rounded down.
