The holy war topics adjust the IMTU code. For now, it's just a list of holy war topics by which I've decided to bore everyone by exposing my narrow, Quixotic views.
an++ The ANNIC NOVA is canon. Its drives are standard, its collector is unique or high-tech and relies on something from stars that can't be provided by a power plant.
au-- Automating starships can't be reliably done at TL15. There are sanity issues to work out.
cpu-- Computers should be smaller.
dt Drop tanks will be effectively within 100D of the ship when it jumps (see Jump masking).
f -- Fighters are ineffective against capital ships at TL15.
fs-- Foreven sector should be regenerated and canonised.
ih Ihatei invasions - canon is fine / don't care.
inf Information distribution speeds - canon is fine.
jf Jump fuel is burned by the powerplant all at once, which fires up the jump drive.
j Jump itself - canon is fine.
jm Jump masking - 100D is 100D from the largest volume. The bigger volume always wins. The loser suffers a misjump or catastrophe.
jt- Jump torpedoes don't exist. Not much, anyway.
nc-- Near-C rocks are adequately defended against. How, I can't say.
pi Piracy - canon is fine.
pp Power plant - canon is fine. Power plants able to power jump drives are relatively leaky.
ssi-- Small-ship Imperium - no, thanks.
tv-- Traffic volume in the Imperium - light.
vi Virus - I guess it's okay.
xb X-boat route - works for me.
ls Life support costs - canon is fine.
n-- Naval budgets - are very small.
tr Trade system - canon is fine.
uwp+ UWP generation - canon is fine. Providing optional modifiers might be nice.
