  1. Re: A Thread for Random Videos That's just because I haven't finished developing Muaykungjutsudo yet!
  2. Re: Rail gun damage? I was thinking of having some supercooling system to avoid the railguns overheating. That was how I was going to explain it. This is a futuristic campaign, so I can include a little superscience there, right? But yes, the guns would still need a fair bit of maintenance in the campaign. Of course, missiles are still the ships' first line of attack, so I'm keeping tabs on the tactical nukes thread here as well.
  3. Re: Rail gun damage? All good points to consider. Thanks for the input, guys.
  4. Re: Rail gun damage? True. I was thinking for point defense, add Autofire and lose AP.
  5. Re: Rail gun damage? Maybe 8d6 would be an absolute maximum, with guns mounted on the largest ships. 5d6 would be an average, with 3d6 being used in tanks and smaller ships. I wouldn't have any spinal mounts at this time because the setting is the near future, and first war in space is being waged. That would limit the firepower a bit. FYI, I'm using the same mechanic for all EM guns. Railguns would be the main guns of the ships, while coilguns would be used for point defenses.
  6. Re: Rail gun damage? I wouldn't use handheld EM guns. They'd be mounted on vehicles. Infantry troops would use regular arms, although the bullets may have liquid propellants
  7. Re: Rail gun damage? Thanks. Perhaps I will add a die or two for guns mounted on bigger ships.
  8. Re: A Thread for Random Videos That's why I don't post in martial arts forums. For something that stresses humility and courtesy, there's sure a lot of ego involved (not that I'm exempt from that).
  9. If I were to write up some of the spacecraft in my hard SF campaign, how much damage should I assign the rail guns? Is the damage in Star HERO's rail gun write-up good enough, or should bigger ships have guns that do more damage?
  10. Re: Vault of Eternity: Adult Divine Dragon That would be good, thanks.
  11. Re: Steam Trek: The Moving Picture My connection is too slow to download the entire thing. Maybe I can get one of my friends to play it when I visit.
  12. Re: Vault of Eternity: Adult Divine Dragon Interesting stuff. What are the divine dragons like?
  13. Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Harry Potter and My Little Pony at the Aerosmith Concert
  14. Re: Genre-crossover nightmares The Big Five-O The residents of Honolulu have lost their memories. Detective Steve McGarrett keeps the peace with the help of his gigantic robot, Big 5-O.
  15. Re: "Neat" Pictures That "trippy" pic almost blinded me. My eyes are still recovering!
  16. Re: New cool links: this time about space stations and the like I included most of the types of space stations in my sci-fi campaign. I'm a bit skeptical about the Globus Cassus, though I'll admit I haven't looked into it very much.
  17. Re: Jokes A doctor goes to a bar and orders a daiquiri. The bartender fixes the drink and on a whim, adds a hickory nut. "What's that?" "It's a hickory daiquiri, Doc."
  18. Re: Jokes Since when was Uncle Sam a holiday character?
  19. Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Indiana Jones and the Emerald Spork.
  20. Re: Genre-crossover nightmares You went a lot further than I did.
  21. Re: Villains named after Santa's reindeer? You can draw inspiration from this carol: What?
  22. Re: The cranky thread My regular VCR seemed to be messing up, so I was having trouble recording my shows. I used another VCR to tape my show, but I got the time wrong when I set the VCR and didn't record it. And it won't be showing again for a while.
  23. Re: The "Nice Happy" Thread Congratulations, Mantis!

    Ace HERO

    Re: Ace HERO Here's a question. Certain planes like the F-4 have a two-man crew: the pilot, and the radar intercept officer. If they shoot down five enemy planes, are they both considered aces, or is that honor reserved for the pilot alone? Edit: On that note, what about bomber crews?
