Potential opponent Janelle Bynum's poll at least covers "protecting our environment":

My representative, Lori Chavez-DeRemer (R), sent out a survey of constituent priorities. Climate change and wealth disparity didn't even make the list.

So you're looking at this (very short) page in the Unity manual. Off to the right of this screenshot, there's a great big right arrow to take you to the next page as you're reading the manual. Where do you think that arrow takes you?

The standard #ttrpg dungeon crawl is problematically colonial: "We want these treasures, and if the natives try to stop us, we'll just have to kill them in self defense."

How can the story be tweaked to avoid this, while maintaining the action/adventure idea of solving problems through personal violence?

I guess the obvious answer is to ally the player characters with the oppressed rather than with the empire. Perhaps more interesting would be to have them *start* allied with the empire, then slowly turn up the wrongness until they switch sides.

I'm enjoying reading the Last Parsec: Eris Beta-V campaign book for Savage Worlds, but whoever wrote and illustrated the section on the space stations seems ... unclear on how spin gravity works. Why would you dock to the outer edge of a spinning ring instead of near the center of rotation, where both docking and moving cargo are easier? Parts on the ends of the rotation axis are described as being at the "top" and "bottom". One of these is executive offices -- wouldn't they therefore be in zero g?
