Super Squirrel Posted January 19, 2005 Report Share Posted January 19, 2005 I'm not MitchellS and will not be posting a serious of insane charts all at once. Impressed, yes, but I just don't have the time to get to that level yet. I'm, however, designing the Usagian military. My campaign takes places in Andromeda Quadrant 0:0:7. The Usagian are an aggressive force that control all systems with a 30 ly radius from the center. The reasons behind the limited control is due to both lack of military force and the inefficiency in communication systems. Ship Types (Non-Military) Merchant Transport Ship Types (Military) Scout Ship Assault Ship Troop Transport Cruiser Dreadnaught Carrier Military Rank Chancellor - Leader of The Usagians Council General - Six Council Generals oversee the entire Military System and report directly to the Chancellor. General - This is a general for every colonized planet, star base, and one commands the Usagian Flagship. Fleet Commander - Responsible for command of a series of ships. Captain - Commanding officer on any non-small Class Ship. Star Three - Squad Leader for either ground or space units Star Two - Pilot Assault or Scout Ships, Elite Ground Units Star One - Experience General Unit Ensign - New Recruit out of training Hyperspace Drives Class I: 1 lightyear / day. Known to breakdown frequently after warp. Class Is: These are stabler versions Class I Hyperdrives. In truth, this is more of a way for me to transfer typed up information from work to home.

MitchellS Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Re: Military Fleet I like what I've seen of the Usagians so far. I might steal it later for one of my hostile races. "Only the names have been changed to protect the innocent." The variable limitation is a good idea for the hyperdrives. I like that idea. I would have no problem using them in my game. The only thing I would change is the immobile limitation for myself. I don't like using it with moving vehicles. I look forward to stealing... seeing more.

Super Squirrel Posted January 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Re: Military Fleet Cool. Last night I installed XSLSpy for designing XML webpages. While we watched the movie Troy, I did the basic layout for all of the Hyperdrives. Once I have the write-ups for all of them, I'll add them up. Today at work, I will try and put in information on their sensor systems. Regarding the Usagians, by all means, fully use them. I plan on introducing them in a very classic way into my game.

Super Squirrel Posted January 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Re: Military Fleet Shield Disruption Laser I While incapable of doing physical damage, this weapon is capable of disrupting a small section of force fields. Area of Effect 3" Radius, 6d6 Suppress Force Field Shield Disruption Laser II This is a more powerful version of the Shield Disruption Laser I Area of Effect 3" Radius, 12d6 Suppress Force Field Shield Disruption Mine This device is a small orb with a built in targetting frequency. When the object strikes a shield, it explodes, momentarily disurpting shields. 20d6 Drain Force Field, Explosive, Trigger, Increased Rate of Turn plus transmit Sensor Lock Location, Trigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitchellS Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Re: Military Fleet That's a sweet idea. I'm not using "shields" in my game but I like the basic idea. I'm not sure about the transmit sensor lock part. I thought I read somewhere in 5Er about senses and triggers. I like the concept though.

Super Squirrel Posted January 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 Re: Military Fleet Hmm. I don't have 5Er but what I could do is make it a plus Concealed Transmit Location Beacon, Only works until Trigger activates (-1/4). Then I could build a weapon with Trigger, Location Beacon disappears. With all of the extra time a weapon would be spent aiming at the mine, that would be a sure-fire hit.
