Supreme Posted February 27, 2003 Report Share Posted February 27, 2003 I'm working on archetype-specific versions of my famed Champs character sheet (soon to be updated for 5th Ed.). Anyway, one of the thingies I'd like to add is a list of "Strength Facts" which would display what your brick is capable of given his/her strength. What I have so far is "Max Deadlift" which simply displays your current STR's lifting capacity, "Benchpress" which is your lifting capacity * .4, "Max Curl" which is LC*.25 (feel free to post corrections to my math if you know better), and "Equivalent to ___ men". Can anyone else thing of things to put in? Please exclude HTH damage as that's already listed in the self-updating combat maneuvers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted February 27, 2003 Report Share Posted February 27, 2003 With the "Power" skill now availible, perhaps a few lines for "Favorite Strength Tricks"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I could see a few lines in the "Notes" section set aside for that. I was thinking of stuff that would be auto-generated by formulas working off of your character's STR.

Acroyear Posted February 27, 2003 Report Share Posted February 27, 2003 If you have room for it maybe an "average material penetration chart" Like 1' of stone, 2" of Steel etc based on the average roll. Maybe if you want to do the math you can do a "impact equivalent to X pounds of TNT" which is always fun to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattingly Posted February 27, 2003 Report Share Posted February 27, 2003 average material penetration chart Excellent idea. I'd also like to see a weight equivalent like on the STR chart. i.e. Can lift a battleship; Can throw a tank 20 meters; etc. Also throw in the Casual STR and its effects.

Mole Posted February 27, 2003 Report Share Posted February 27, 2003 I think the STR Table (pg. 21, 5E) and Throwing Table (pg. 22, 5E) would be nice. How about a listing what the brick can jump over based on their leaping, i.e., 2 story building, Statue of Liberty, Kansas, etc., all in a single bound of course.

Supreme Posted February 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2003 All good suggestions, Thanks Supreme. I'll definitely do the Casual STR, both lifting and damage. I can't fit in the entire throwing table, unfortunately. And only doing a couple of stats from it doesn't make much sense, because there's still the variable of what you're going to throw. Picking an arbitrary weight doesn't seem like it'd be helpful (though cars are the most common object, they have quite a weight range). I thought of the lifting equivalent (i.e., car, battleship, etc.) but I don't know if there's going to be enough room. Maybe if you want to do the math you can do a "impact equivalent to X pounds of TNT" which is always fun to say. I'd love to, but what's the math? How many pounds of TNT is it to the D6?

Steve did a thing on comparitive explosives. I forget where I saw it. Anyone remember? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
