I'm all for it— at least as premises for a SF campaign. (Seriously, some of this stuff has been tossed around in SF novels and entertainment for years. Somebody at Harvard was bored…)

Have you ever played a game (tabletop or RPG) with any of the concepts from the article?

My work-in-progress set in the Arctic has nazis, a flying saucer, spacemen, cavemen, sabretooth tigers, the military, a Papal delegation, Inuits, etc.

All my extraplanetary warfare takes place on a Mars heavily indebted to Edgar Rice Burroughs, C. L. Moore and Leigh Brackett--even though some of the combatants are derived from George Lucas, 2000AD or even Games Workshop.

It's my planet, and if I want a Squat land train or a Jawa crawler crossing my dead, dried-up sea basins no one else gets a vote.
