Re: Laser Gunship Revealed it would also depend on how fast and hot the air got along the beam path if we are talking about melting a hole thru a tank you would see the air go incandesant if we are talking about disabling optics blinding/3rd degree burns to flesh probably not

Re: SFX Question... What's in those blaster clips? are the clips rechargable?ala a laser power pack they could contain a chemical energy source(high output very short duration to power the particle accelerator in the gun)shaped like smaller shells(to get a more shots that a regular gun) the big thing is who many shots are there in a clip? are all the components in the weapon and it just needs power(I have unlimited ammo but only as long a stay plugged in) I'd have to say for a near future game clips hold shells that contain a chemical power source and the particles for the accerator the shell carries away the excess heat there is no potential energy(standing in a battery)

Re: Weapon From Anything??? why not have the mulitpower with the added limitation of no conscience control and have the Game master decide how much damage an item can cause and unless the object has something vital to the game(laptop has the codes to disarm the nukes)I wouldn't worry about it as a matter of fact I would that as a delima for the hero use the laptop as a weapon or go naked into the next fight

Re: Defunct Comic Publishers and Licenced Sourcebooks there are factors that could explain the problem 1 pizza shop was run by sombody that had no business sence 2 crappy service 3 too many pizza joints in the area 4 nobody in the area likes pizza 5 ran out of the special sauce/lost the secret recipe(ran out of cool ideas/story lines) look at Buffy the vampire slayer movie sucked TV show rawked the character concepts might be cool,but the way they where presented or where the story took them killed the book

Re: Surviving fall from orbit thanks shouldn't that be 11 kps(kilometers per second)

Re: Surviving fall from orbit Dry Ice(CO2 in solid form)is about -10 deg F which is just a little colder than 0 deg C you might be thinking of liquid nitrogen which I think is in that area saw a teacher dip a banana in it and then used it as a hammer angle of attackfor entering the atmosphere is what needs to be defined the closer to 90 degrees the shorter time till you hit ground less time to heat up from friction now what will be the explosion from a mass of 100kg hitting the ground at near orbital velocities

Re: Terran Empire Starships: Game Play kinda like peeling an onion if we all work on it and do it quick there will be only a little crying my tactics for a fleet battle would be ftr's keep ftrs busy or take out bomber types or act as missle defence use bomber types as missle defence till enemy ftrs are gone corvettes and DD's on anti fighter/anti-missle defence cruisers pair or triple up on enemy DD's and smaller all the rest single out the biggest ship in range and kill it use ftrs and bombers to take out the rest starting with small to large

Re: Terran Empire Starships: Game Play this would be where BB's pound on DD's or all ships coordinate on 1 ship to cripple it(take down 1 shield) large volleys of missles at the lead ship(or a ship that might be outside of an anti missle envelope)

Re: Heroes and Nukes! you can mission kill that tank by removing the turret it is not bolted down and may only weigh about 25 tons(50 str brick) or turtle it(on it's side or top 60 tons (56 str)

Re: Hero Funding go back to the dumpster and dive for more parts

Re: The Big Chill problems with building the Habbakuk 1) had to start with a work in below freezing area 2)those to serve on board had to live in below freezing temps(there might have been some thermally shielded rooms galleies,sleeping quarters,etc) 3) the thing would have dwarfed a modern CVN(I believe it was suppose to be able to handle medium bombers(b-25,b-26,mosquitoes) 4)the hull was to be arould 30' to 50' thick but it would have been really slow (10kts max)

Re: Clairvoyance then teleport 18 always misses if they have to roll on the teleport into a solid object chart somebody is going to get hurt bad maybe to the point of having to cancel the OP or gets captured if the villan knows what the teleporter can percieve they can then lace the area with stuff the t-porter cannot percieve 10lb test fish line is pretty hard to see beyond 5' motion,pressure sensors, and the such can be linked to various boobytraps

Re: Deep holes on Mars on a volcano could it be a colapse of a wall in a flow tube

Re: Pirate Hero there is a free version there you can also search for other rar decompressors

Re: Pirate Hero it is a different type of zip file compressor here is a link to the program http://www.rarlab.com/

Re: Pirate Hero you need something that will open .rar's it opened fine for me

Re: Pirate Hero "Run out your guns" by I.C.E. had very good details on ships of the time(but no deck plans) also the templates for character was very good skills that a sailor/buccaneer/soldier/etc should have

Re: More Aircraft: P-61 Black Widow as in opperational range that means how far out it can go before needing to turn back also speed given would be max cruising speed would be 1/2 to 2/3 of max and is generally 80%of the time what the plane will be flying at

Re: More Aircraft: P-61 Black Widow 2x1 hr fuel charges? site had it with an endurance of 8 hrs

Re: Skyguard Laser I wonder how much weight and how much bigger a rocket would need to be if it had a shuttle tile like system on it to counter the laser cost of it won't be cheap and hopefully too much tech needed than a simple machine shop

Re: Master List of Limitations, HD Prefabs what size is the file 645.2kb is what the link says 643 is what properties says so there might be something missing and that could be the error I'm getting

Re: Master List of Limitations, HD Prefabs still not able to open it might be me I'm using winRAR and XP compessed neither seems to beable to open it what zip program are you using? ! C:\Documents and Settings\Beast\Desktop\MasterLists.zip: Unexpected end of archive ! C:\Documents and Settings\Beast\Desktop\MasterLists.zip: The archive is either in unknown format or damaged

Re: Master List of Limitations, HD Prefabs Edsel your update may be corrupted I have tried both winRAR and windows compressed and both give me a corrupted message could you check it please thanks

Re: Variable Power Pools and Skills? for me I would say that all skills in the VPP are base 11-(no getting the stat bonus) if the character wants them at a higher level then he needs to pay for the higher level in the VPP(no use of overall or stat based skill levels) as the GM if the character wants to down load new skills outside of his secure data base there could be connetivity issuses,time for download,secuity for the download(virus protection or mind control,tagging of reciever) I could see a whole lot of ways to have this character be the occasional villan toy for the team so while he may be able to play the jack of all trades he could be some villans jack in the box surprise

Re: Fantasy Reproduction I was more suggesting a weakness in their psyche for they cannot be reborn if they are lost at sea [quote=Manic Typist;1214939 Beast- if you want, you can use it to create sea orcs. Have the chambers be dug along the shore, with heavy saltwater and sand influences. Driftwood, tossing in drowned sailors and any merfolk that get tangled in a net... whatever. Trolls... trolls need to be pondered. I like the idea of extended incubation!!!
