Crew Insurrection, Master Computers, Balance and Foo.

[Taqwus]

Hrrrrm. The 'beserk computer' scenario is quite interesting... one could take a page from SF literature and even implement full-scale AI rebellion (e.g. robotoid factories on strike, heh. It's Rise of the Robots time...), but that's probably more than a _wee_ bit extreme... more suitable for a specific mission/scenario than a random event.

But an MC'd computer occasionally getting buggy, and going mucker... that could be very interesting, indeed, without being too unduly unfair. Muhahahahaha.

(And maybe heavy use of MCs, computers and robotoid factories should cause unhappiness as people are being replaced? Maybe not; perhaps vaguely Luddite uprisings have no place in 2400, in races that intersystem space travel... But... it's another way to balance them, if need be.)
