Confusion Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 Well fans of the series should have no trouble at all with what I'm talking about.. For the rest, Well, Our Hero has decided that he does not like killing anymore, that the universe has seen to much death. However he is still a freedom fighter so what to do? The answer several miracles of modern biochemistry. There are three drugs/chemicals that I want to reproduce, but I'm having some issues ruleswise (I'm also at work and don't have a book handy) First, Vomit. I have two trains of thought, either a largeish say 6 or 8d6 Drain to CON or a smaller 2 or 3d6 drain to CON, but continuous for say 3 to 5 minutes. The second option pretty much ensures that everyone will get affected. Second, Diarrhea, can be done the same as Vomit, but with maybe a slightly longer recovery time for the victim? Thought, use the continuous on the vomit. And the larger attack on the diarrhea? I don't want to ruin the plumbing as well.. heh. Finally, Spasm. From the novels, the victim is put in a comatose state for 6 months. I'm not entirely sure how to stat this up.. (and having a book handy would help) If I do it as a Drain, with recovery as say a week per point or something how do I represent the sudden wake up? I thought there was an option for it, but I don't remember.. ugh... So, thoughts, opinions, suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Seeman Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 Re: Chemical Weapons ala Steve Perry's Matador series.. For the Spams just make it a Major Transform from Normal Person to Person in Coma, and it Heals Back after six months automatically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HewhoisMatt Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Re: Chemical Weapons ala Steve Perry's Matador series.. Funny you should ask, I was thinking of posting this same question. Now how would you do the weapon he used to fire the darts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Sarcastic Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Re: Chemical Weapons ala Steve Perry's Matador series.. So does this mean someone else has thought of doing a Matador-HERO besides myself? As an aside, you could probably do spetstods as a Multi-Power. I know there was at least one dart/projectile weapon in Gadgets&Gear that with a little tweaking could be a spetstod. You could also give the Spetstod MP the Side Effect disad (A failed "Spetstod use" roll means theres a chance you've shot yourself or a team-mate.)

HewhoisMatt Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Re: Chemical Weapons ala Steve Perry's Matador series.. I did not want to do a Matador game so much as use the Spetstod in a more Alternity based game. I want more aliens than Perry had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confusion Posted October 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Re: Chemical Weapons ala Steve Perry's Matador series.. hmm.. I hadn't actually thought of making a Spetsdod. My particular situation calls for something a bit meatier. But, it should be fairly easy (and fun) Emile's Spetsdod I believe only fired Spasm.. so 1D6 RKA, AP, 2x Penetrating. AF/5 This should penetrate most 'soft' armor. Linked to say, 8D6 Transform (Normal to Comatose) or even. 8D6 Transform NND, Defense being hard armor. AF/5 hmm.. other options.. more for game balance, since well Spasm is pretty hefty. Removable Barrel: Make the weapon like -1 or -2 OCV, since it is fairly innaccurate. The barrel will add the +1 or +2 back into it, making it a 0, but less concealable. Maybe only allow the autofire when the barrel is off. (I should really have book when doing this.. damn posting from work) I really intended to do a little more work on this lastnight, but well both episodes of Farscape: Peacekeeper Wars were on back to back.

Steve Long Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Re: Chemical Weapons ala Steve Perry's Matador series.. The fun thing about this thread is that it shows up on the main page as "Chemical Weapons ala Steve." I didn't know I had any -- cool!
