   On Tech level:    
   It is hard to define it for me, because action takes place in a much diferrent   
   world, I think I wrote something on the setting in "armored car" or something   
   like that thread. So, they use antimatter powered starships (space tugs we   
   discussed a long time    
   ago) there are coilguns, PBWs, lasers, and kinetic missiles used for space   
   warfare. They have fusion drives that are absurdly powerful, with torch-like   
   performance, working by creating a constant thermonucear detonation in plasma.   
   Their shuttles use very    
   advanced chemical fuels (is it possible to make a rocket plane that can enter   
   atmosphere, hover over terrain and then go on orbit again? Now when I am   
   thinking about it I am not so sure...) Hmm, and what more to say on tech   
   level... Common use of    
   nanotubes and 2d materials in building things? As for personal weapons, I   
   imagine chemical kinetic weapons being used most commonly, just because how   
   simple and reliable they are in comparison to lasers and other electricity   
   using ones. But they are    
   starting to be better, and some of special forces use them, and also they are   
   used by some civilians. I imagine mining lasers used as improvised weapons by   
   some insurgents, what do you think?    
   On the ChemRail, I always imagined it uses some form of Explosively Pumped   
   Compression Flux Generator (I hope I remember this thing's name correctly),   
   the explosion drives bullet with gasses and then electricity from that propels   
   it further,but I am    
   unsure if that would work :p Also, I think that something is off with its   
   muzzle energy, wouldn't it brake your arm? Also, 18 kJ is like energy of .50   
   BMG, so not in tank-hurting range, at least not on modern ones, but really   
   powerful. So ChemRail is    
   weapon that fires bullets smaller than .50 cal, but with high velocity, so   
   energy is around the same. I will write some of my next thoughts tomorrow, and   
   also what do you think about posting details of my fictonal universe in new   
   thread? I could use some    
   help in building it and making it work.
