gojira Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 I was thinking about the up coming Time Travel Hero and pirates, and I realized I've never noticed any special rules in Hero for Age of Sail ships. Do those rules exist, and if so which book are they in? If those rules don't exist, does any one want to start jotting down some ideas? I'm kind of at a disadvantage here because all (and mean ALL) my books are currently packed away. Y'all gonna have to give me a hand here.

Andrew Cermak Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Re: Hero System Vehicles: Sailing Ships The Ultimate Vehicle has rules for sailing ships. There's only one sample write-up, but the Hero System Vehicle Sourcebook has quite a few more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gojira Posted October 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Re: Hero System Vehicles: Sailing Ships I might have to check out HSVS then. What ships are written up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Cermak Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Re: Hero System Vehicles: Sailing Ships HSVS has writeups for a Brigantine, Caravel, Carrack, Clipper Ship, Cog, Curragh, Felucca, Flute, Frigate, Junk, Ketch, and Pinnace, as well as a modern Sailing Yacht. TUV has a writeup for a Galleon. Be aware, though, that they're planning on releasing a vehicles book for 6th Edition early next year; if past releases are an indication, it may very well include updated writeups for the vehicles in HSVS.

Barwickian Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Re: Hero System Vehicles: Sailing Ships Be aware, though, that they're planning on releasing a vehicles book for 6th Edition early next year; if past releases are an indication, it may very well include updated writeups for the vehicles in HSVS. On the other hand, both HSVS and TUV are half price at the moment (as are all available 5th edition books). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazar Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Re: Hero System Vehicles: Sailing Ships Steve has stated under the 2012 releases thread that the new Hero System Vehicles book will be an amalgamation of HSVS and TUV. Personally I can't wait for it's release. I want it yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidetrack Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Re: Hero System Vehicles: Sailing Ships Does HSVS have any write ups on the multi-hulled Polynesian Sailing vessels that were able to run circles around the visiting European ships?
