Agrees,
but if you have an open mind, HU:AU and HU:GG can be sorcebooks for MiO.

May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.

I think it,s time for Mutants in Orbit get Revised.
What would you like to see in it...
The Stations must have gone to Jupiter by 109:p.a and thers a number of usful Mineral Resources in it,s Moons.
In My game a Rift was made underground on Mars,the rift is connecting the dimension with the elemental plane of water making a area of 12 km with a breathable atmosphere,The Bugs were all killed off.
thers is a Alien city on surface on the other side of Mars.

the new swimsuit issue has a neat article on these mind-controlling jellyfish thing frozen in europa..for Chaos Earth.
presumably said things would still exist by RIFTS. with Europa being a perfect place to set up a refuelling base for trips to the outer planets and Oort cloud (for all those nifty, water-filled, comets), that makes it likely the jelly-things would get their tenticles on somebody else..
the question is, are the things able to hide the take overs well enough that europa doesn't get blockaded and deemed a no-landing zone?
and in any course, the other major jovian moons would also be a good source of ice/water for fuel, though being more massive they are less attractive for such.

well, most of the arkhon fleet crashlanded on mars, so no need for dinosaurs or such.
as for terraforming, i'd want to see various mars adapted plants intended to convert that thin CO2 atmosphere into a O2 one. not sure how you'd deal with the lack of nitrogen though.
the big issue with terraforming mars is the lack of a magnetosphere. over time (albiet many thousands of years) you'd loose the atmosphere to solar wind stripping. which is why mars has such a thin atmosphere to begin with.

Keep in mind that, canonically, on Mars there is a zone that is habitable thanks to the Mars Base being placed inside a Martian Ley Line Triangle (a la the Bermuda Triangle on Rifts Earth), which caused the small scale terraforming that was taken place to blossom and run wild.
However, if you step outside the ley line triangle without an air supply... you die.
