The tech levels of Action.

  • Ancient - Antiquity to 500 BC. Tools are made of stone, organic materials, or soft metals like silver, gold, or bronze.
  • Blacksmith - 5000 BC to 1400 AD. Iron slowly transforms the world. The techniques of ironmaking improve a lot during this period, making iron much more common over time, but what you can actually do with it remains about the same.
  • Clockwork - 1300 AD to 1800 AD. Refinements now allow flexible steel and precision machinery. Firearms conquer the world.
  • Steam - 1750 to 1900 AD. Powered machinery frees humanity from much muscle labor, large-scale mechanical engineering is pretty much perfected.
  • Combustion - 1890 to 1950 AD. Internal combustion and electricity makes technology smaller and easier to handle, making technological items an everyday occurrence.
  • Electronic - 1940 to 1990 AD. Miniaturization and electronics is the key to this era. Nuclear power makes its debut. Computers are discovered and advance by leaps and bounds throughout this time.
  • Fusion - 1985 to Near future. Most utensils are now smart and networked to some degree. Technology goes under the human skin. Fossil fuels are gradually phased out.
  • Hyperspace - Far future. Faster than light travel, time travel, teleportation, and other power effects become replicable trough technology. Force fields and energy beams are commonplace.
