This scenario based on Louis Norton 21st scenario presents a slightly different
view of the world at the dawn of the 21st century. Here though the Protagonists 
are the Japanese rather than the Americans. The Americans, Europeans and Russians 
remain formidable but can they retain their superpower status into the next millenium? 
Four new technologies are available (science has not come to an end yet!): 
Advanced Composites; Nanotechnology; Machine Intelligence and Genome mapping. 
Advanced Composites brings the sub-orbital 
spaceplane (like the Delta Clipper, the Hotol and the Sanger Spaceplane) 
which available in commercial (Ci) or military versions (Mi). The former 
tremendously facilitates the development of trade - the latter is a 
nearly invunerable weapons platform. Nanotechnology and Machine Intellegence 
bring the Android, a robust durable robot worker who does the work of the settler 
and the engineer but more quickly and cheaply; The Robot Tank, rocket-equipped 
and airportable and the pilotless Drone Fighter. Genome mapping allows the 
Advanced Medical Facility and the Human Genome Project which both reduced 
unhappyness as they eliminate disease and suffering.


Interstellar spaceship building is allowed; be sure not to let your opponents beat 
you into space!
