Seems like that would be a lot easier with a science-fiction background
rather than a fantasy/magic one.  

But are there are any commercial science-fiction games in the works?  Seems
like all I see are techno-fantasy or stock-fantasy.  Either swords and
sorcery, or swords and sorcery and laser-pistols.  But sort of
Traveller-esque type online multiplayer game.

Is it just the size of the map that's a problem?
