RPMiller Posted September 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Re: Real World tech for your gadgeteer I believe it is currently 1 pound to 2 dollars or there about so that unit would be about $5K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobGreenwade Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 Re: Real World tech for your gadgeteer I'm always on the lookout for "real world tech" for my gadgeteer superhero... but this goes beyond even my character's needs in terms of ruggedness. I'd probably get it anyway.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you can fight Star Buck the evil caffeine overlord with no fear of damaging your equipment.

BobGreenwade Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 Re: Real World tech for your gadgeteer Mostly I'd just make it a standard UMPC (something like 30 INT, 20 DEX, 4 SPD) with all the usual bells and whistles for a personal computer, plus the GPS component, bought through an OAF with about +8 DEF and 10 points of Power Defense.
