  1. Re: Combat Armor that requires having a skill.

     

    its possible for a scout to pick up Battledress skill, in the GURPS Traveller universe the scouts have a commando force that sometimes uses battledress, along with theres a set of hostile enviroment armor thats pretty much battledress without the weapons capabilities, and more sensor gear. I could see the HEA also being used for damage control teams on starships, but thats what military starships tend to train marines for also.

    also... most forms of armor in Traveller can be fitted with a reflective coating thats going to mitigate some fire from laser or plasma weapons, this can be ablative. I am the one most to blame for any sins on the weapons and armor in Traveller Hero, I had debated some changes/errata later. but a lot of things just didnt happen before it went poof

  3. Re: Urban Fantasy Setting: Here There Be Monsters

     

    hadnt even thought about Dick Grayson.... then again never much of a DC fan to begin with, easy enough to change that

     

    as far as the Psychic goes, that works really well about the supernatural sense, and since its a wild talent its not quite a deux ex as it could be

     

    as far as the photographer goes, I will have to work on some ideas

  4. Re: Urban Fantasy Setting: Here There Be Monsters

     

    I am wandering into this way late guys, got a couple of character ideas for professionals

     

    Stunt Man: a pretty normal guy with stage fighting skills or bare bones martial arts, who worked in a lot of grade B and Z movies, who at one point got the first hand experience of finding out that monsters really exist. he grew up

    in a circus family, but decided to try something else.

    Photographer: freelance photographer from downunder who learned his trade in the military, and worked in various places in africa and europe, he was working as a safari guide in africa when his safari was mostly wiped out

    by a group of ivory poachers led by a witch doctor and his zombies

    Occult Private Detective: Cajun born, from New Orleans, Mathias Cross is sorta a combination of Columbo and the Pink Panther, hes also a wild talent precog, and an alcoholic because of it. basic PI skills, his wild talent, and a couple

    of dice of unluck

     

    the Photographer and the OPI are old Bureau 13/Stalking the Night Fantastic characters that I am going to modify and resurrect for MHI etc

  5. Re: Fins and Ray-Guns

     

    so many fun choices... and of course Flesh Gordon, Spaceways, Gor, if you want something if you want more of an adult bent. I found one of the Spaceways novels for like 50 cents, it made the Gor novels look like Pulitizer prize material. I think it was titled "Of Alien Bondage"

  6. Re: MHI info in Hero Designer?

     

    once its available, I'm sure somebody will come up with templates for HD, I will put some together for personal use at least, but I will make sure its ok with the powers that be before posting them. there are various templates and prefabs already available that should prove useful for you, HD is well worth the cost if your going to be generating characters/equipment.... whatever

  8. Re: Laser Weapons

     

    ok, I can see that, I just finished statting up all the laser pistols, so heres an HD file with them for you to play with, thank assorted deities for Hero Designer. it makes building lists like this a lot simpler and faster, and faster to edit too

  9. Re: Laser Weapons

     

    my thoughts on fragile are this. if it has a low malfunction # in BL, or is listed in the fluff as being tempermental etc should get fragile, and in some cases unreliable etc, also early laser weapons tend to be easily knocked out of alignment etc. also I noticed the SSU is listed as a 2 handed weapon accidentally, thats been corrected

  10. Re: Laser Weapons

     

    did some quick statting on the fly, how does this look
