Renegade Legion Ship and Vehicle Conversions?

Re: Renegade Legion Ship and Vehicle Conversions?

 

I have the Centurion and Leviathan tech readouts here, but the basic rules for the games are buried in boxes goddess knows where. I just never gave thought to working up some conversions, lets talk about some ground rules for starting the conversions and I will see about bashing together some draft ideas.

although I have my paws full right now with a project to update The Ultimate Grimoire to 5th Edition/HD2, so it might be a while, I am working sections by letter and am working on the letter M right now, so we shall soon how soon that fiinishes

 

I figure starting with Centurion would be easiest

Re: Renegade Legion Ship and Vehicle Conversions?

 

lets start looking at some ground rules stuff for conversions

 

couple bits of scale information I ran accross on an initial read through of the technical readout

 

at least for ground vehicles 1 movement point= 12 kph

grav vehicles are at least a lot more maneuverable, but I havent found any

information on speeds

 

1 factor of weapons range= 200 meters

a lot of weapons dont have information on rof or damage

along with I havent found any real information on ammo supplies

 

most vehicles mount smoke dischargers and at least some vehicles have an

ecm package

 

Sensors and Commo etc

Grav Vehicles have at least a basic terrain following/avionics package

 

being a major gearhead, I find the level of detail in the Centurion/Leviathan books disapointing compared with the Battletech books

Weapons don't have a damage value, because they use the armor grid and the template for weapon damage. Just take a look at the weapon damage and you should be able to figure out the appropriate damage.

 

If anyone needs info, I have the basic sets of all three games and the rpg.

An Interceptor fighter can have a Laser Cannon that has a crystal core that is up to 7.5 meters long by 6 cm wide (~2.3") [7.5/6], while a Leviathan Capital Ship could have a laser crystal that is a massive 37.5 meters long by 30 cm wide (~12") [37.5/30], and there can be up to a 100 massive lasers in a single battery!

 

These multi-tonned massive laser weapons on Interceptor fighters and Leviathan capital ships should do some really serious damage.
