Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

high energy weapons are nice, but heres one my favorite toys for Battledress use

 

NOTE: this weapon is unofficial, the supplement it was intended for never saw the light of day.

 

its a 4cm RAM GL with burst fire capability, that feeds from a 125 round ammo cassette

 

yeah shes a beat to haul around, and is pretty much Battledress only

 

but she has some advantages over High Energy Weapons

 

1. Range is about equal to HEW, but the damage/penetration doesnt change

at any range

2. 2 round burst and indirect vs direct fire single shot

3. more flexibility with the various ammo types available

4. your not as likely to get executed etc for getting caught with one in the wrong place as with HEW.

 

Imperial Marines simply call this a Can Opener

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

just a general followup question

 

where do we stand on things, what should I tackle next?

[Eodin]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

Look in the starship construction chapter... we need more standard weapon builds, and we need to get all 6 of the Maneuver drives written up; we still need snippets of info for the Religion chapter, criminal orgs and law enforcement for the Criminal Underworld chapter; look in the Professions chapter - if you have any race-specific professions that we should include, like the Hiver Tech Rep and the Aslan Assassin, we need writeups of those. Also for weapons, we need to decide if we're going to include writeups howitzers, bazookas, and such.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

Criminal Orgs and Law Enforcement:

 

since most law enforcement is handled on a planetary level, unless were dealing with piracy, weapons of mass destruction, or slavery. not sure where to go with that beyond the law level chart thats part of planet building

 

beyond vargr pirate bands, and shady corps, there wasnt any real talk of other criminal organizations on a level higher than single planets

 

there are bounty hunters, and skip tracers who specialize in starship thefts

but I'm not sure where to go beyond that

[shadowcat1313]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

lets talk about Starship weapons next

 

first problem we need to wrestle with is sheer scale.

if we go with the tables I have written for vehicle weapons damage, then the starship calibre weapons are going to be nigh on obscene

 

I had the ships beam laser figured at 8D6 AP

do we need to rework these values?

[Eodin]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

I was looking in TNE at the power ratings of the various weapons, and one of the starships has a 120 Mj turret laser (RKA 7d6+1 using "integrated damage") while the Grav Tank has a 108 Mj laser (also 7d6+1 using "integrated damage"). The main difference is that the starship weapon has MegaRange.

So I guess we need to look at the Mj rating in Traveller where given, and see what the "integrated damage" value would be. If it's a starship weapon, it has the appropriate MegaRange advantage.

FYI the "integrated damage" table is at http://www.starherofandom.com/house_rules/damage_table.php

[shadowcat1313]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

heres an area where things get messy

 

MT figures:

 

Ships Beam Laser[TL 12+]: 250megawatt[GT TL-10 uses the same figure]

Turret Missile: 150mm Warhead

Bay Missile: 250mm Warhead

 

The ships I've done so far use the MT/CT figures for the weapons

if we drop the GT figures, were left with 2 distinctly different values for the same weapon. also TNE lasers are single mounts and not the 1, 2, or 3 weapon mounts you see in all other versions of traveller.

 

unfortunately the best figures for energy output etc for starhip weapons come out of GURPS Traveller, and what can we use from there, one consistent idea is that High Guard uses Energy Points, an energy point is 250 megawatts, per Striker

The Missile Warhead sizes come from COACC

[Eodin]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

Hmmm, sounds like we need to collect it all in a spreadsheet and do some comparison and conversion. I think a low-power starship laser should be rated around 7d6K (DC 21), since a Nuclear Missile is 20d6Kx.

Maybe we can interpolate the 150mm missiles from some of the stuff in Dark Champions.

[shadowcat1313]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

or we could use the relative explosive power section of the Integrated damage chart

 

the figures I used initially are based on the warhead weights listed in striker for a warhead of that size

[Eodin]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

That works!

[shadowcat1313]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

one of the biggest frustrations with this is with currently 5 different versions of Traveller, not all of them agree on various things, so your left to punt

[Eodin]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

About the best we can do then is make reasonable design choices and punt. We may have to overspecifiy and say "TL12 Laser, 120Mj", "TL13 Laser, 150Mj", "100mm Missile, 50kTon", etc. since there are so many incarnations.

[shadowcat1313]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

I am going to go with the 250mj Beam Laser

and the warhead weights by striker standards for ships missiles to figure damage

 

150mm warhead is listed as a 60kg warhead, but per Striker this is halved

so its a 30kg HEAP warhead equivilant

 

250mm warhead comes in at 240/120

 

 

with the damage scaling in Hero, its not going to make a lot of difference to begin with on some things

 

since 250-500mj will use the same damage chart you can lump all the TL 12+ beam lasers in one

 

we can use the EP input values to figure damage for the weapons that arent covered, or borrow from GT for just the damage figures, but to do that might require asking permission... thoughts?

[Eodin]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

That all sounds good and reasonable to me. As far as GT, I think if we use that for relational damage ( more K than Rifle but less than Bazooka) to guess the values we need to use, we're okay. If we do essentially convert from GT, we'll definitely want to ask permission.

[shadowcat1313]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

I had another thought on this

what about 3 versions of each weapon

 

Low Tech

Standard Tech

Advanced Tech

 

for example

LT Beam Laser costs 2*End, Visible Light weapon, High Maintenance

ST Beam Laser Invis to Normal Sight

HT Beam Laser, 1/2 END, Invisible to Sight group

 

Pulse Laser

LT costs 2*End, VLW, High Maintenace, very short range, AF3

ST Invis to Normal Sight, Short Range, AF5 PD Capable

HT 1/2 END, Short Range, Invis to Sight Grouo, AF10, PD Capable

 

Hight Energy Weapons could be run as per Pulse Lasers

 

Bay Weapons will vary, other than 60 degree firing arc and a 2 man crew

[shadowcat1313]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

heres an example for the beam lasers above

 

Low Tech Beam Laser: RKA 8d6, MegaScale (1" = 1,000 km; +1), Can Be Scaled Down 1" = 1km (+1/4) (270 Active Points); OIF Bulky Fragile (-1 1/4), Custom Modifier (Visible Light Laser; -1/2), Increased Endurance Cost (x2 END; -1/2), Beam (-1/4), Real Weapon (-1/4), Custom Modifier (High Maintenance; -1/4)

 

Standard Tech Beam Laser: RKA 8 1/2d6, Invisible to Single Sense (Normal Sight; +1/4), MegaScale (1" = 1,000 km; +1), Can Be Scaled Down 1" = 1km (+1/4) (325 Active Points); OIF Bulky Fragile (-1 1/4), Beam (-1/4), Real Weapon (-1/4)

 

High Tech Beam Laser: RKA 9d6, Reduced Endurance (1/2 END; +1/4), Invisible to Sight Group (+1/2), Armor Piercing (+1/2), MegaScale (1" = 1,000 km; +1), Can Be Scaled Down 1" = 1km (+1/4) (472 Active Points); OIF Bulky Fragile (-1 1/4), Beam (-1/4), Real Weapon (-1/4)

 

for some reason this refuses to post my notes when I paste from Hero Designer

 

this is a single laser, but a turret can mount up to 3, so BF2 or AF3 could be added to account for this

[Eodin]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

I like it, but the purists will probably want the TL# instead of Low Tech/Med Tech/High Tech.

[shadowcat1313]

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

I am a purist too, but when we do the conversions, the differences in damage arent that great due to the scaling issues with hero system

 

 

how about Beam Laser-9

Beam Laser-12

Beam Laser-15

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

Just like FGMP-13, -14, and -15. Okay, let's do it that way.

The Traveller Integrated Timeline

http://www.prairienet.org/~dmckinne/timeline.html

 

Don Mckinney was a denizen on the Red October boards years ago also. I e-mailed Don who I know from Winter Wars about using the timeline chart or at least providing a link to it in the pdf.

my next project is going to be to post some converted characters I think

to test the conversion rules we posted earlier

 

I will start with my infamous marine cavalry commando and the example merchant from traveller book 1
