I've been wondering about the Biomechanical Structure option in Vehicles (2nd edition). GURPS 3E has an entire book on biotech, but that is based more on character writeups, so I'll look at Vehicles and the Expansions.

VE18 says clearly that a vehicle with the Biomechanical option has a mix of biological and mechanical components, but some components "feel right" for a biomech vehicle -- power from bioconvertors, propulsion with legs, flexibody or hydrojets, the biocomputer option from Robots. But what is a suitable air propulsion system? Ornithopter wings sound good, but the power to weight ratio is a problem if the vehicle has inefficient propulsion systems like bioconvertors.

Regards,
Onno
