The thing about posthuman/transhuman sci-fi and libertarianism is that even Eclipse Phase devotes space to entire idological clades that are basically "Libertarians in space." I'm not at all trying to argue that this masterpiece of furry hermaphroditic libertarian posthumanism is at all going to be good, I'm just pointing out that it's not terribly uncommon for transhumanist sci-fi to do things like have libertarian communities that manage to function without tearing themselves apart thanks to the application of things like magic nanotech and a reputation economy that might also as well be magic.

Ess we're trapped in the period where we think SWM anarchists aren't secretly-even-to-themselves

Libertarian MRAs? That's the worst of all possible combinations, barring adding White Supremacists to the mix.

Eh he he he he he... Autonomist Alliance and anarchism.

Gerlach's hosed either way when Venus makes its decision.

Extropia is a glorified tax haven heavily implied to be kept together by the unborn consciousness of its stock exchange pulling a Blue Ant Trilogy that it may be born.

Locus is the one victory anarchists have, and even that can be attributed to brinkers and criminals defending their livelihoods while Titan fought the Jovian fleet to an agreeable ceasefire and oh hey the anarchists helped!

it's quite obvious where he's cribbing shamelessly from his earlier work.

Or the work of others he's previously talked poo poo about.

Genius makes playing mad scientists in the World of Darkness boring. Also, charts.

I'm sure that if you wanted an actual game about being a mad scientist your best bet would be to take Doors and rejigger them into an Invention system before adding Visitors, various Angels, startup cultists of various stripes, and hollow, envious financiers.

But it would be nothing like oMage, so...

You've never played in a nWoD chat game :negative:

They made attempts at having the various gamelines play nice with each other, unlike with oWoD, so the Mage issue is kind of glaring. Honestly, they shouldn't have bothered- crossover is the devil's business.

The nChangeling hook of "some gently caress's ensorcelling vampires and getting them hooked on goblin fruit, you need to deal with it before the fanged population learns that you're an acceptable substitute." is the best hook, and I want published material expanding on that.
